My mystery plant. I found a bulb when clearing a friend's garden of weeds and decided to plant it and see what would happen. I still have no idea what it is though.

Or a daffodil or a hyacinth.

That would be nice. I'm preparing myself that it might be a weed. It was a very overgrown garden.

No weed produces bulbs.

It looks like a hyacinth to me.

I just recently found the same kind of bulb and mine turned out to be a Hyacinth!
