Have I made a mistake?

It is supposed to be O. umbellatum, but "spring flowering"
isn't a single epoch. Most of the naturalisable spring flowering
bulbs are early spring, but bluebells and daisies are late spring.
If it normally flowers a bit earlier, then it won't be hidden
by the daisies. If it normally flowers late, I need to plant
some more in another place.

Mine (nutans) have gone over. They're not in the lawn but would be a
lot higher than daisies if they were. This article on the Guardian web
site indicates some may be flowering later:
