One could believe that they are Bluebells but it's more exactly of the Spanish Bluebells or Scilla hispanica. One considers this plant, not like a species with whole share, but like a subspecies of the bluebell. Indeed, this subspecies is cultivated either starting from wild bulbs or starting from the multiple varieties which exist in the trade. There morphology diverge sometimes from the typical plant. She like humus grounds, in nutrients and which keeps humidity. It supports the sun often better than the bluebell. It's thus a plant of glade, wood edge or frankly in the shade of the forest.

Here, photographed, of the street, in the garden of private persons.
The flowers of the wild seedlings are blue-mauve, a blue paler than that of the bluebell, a milky blue more or less raised darker scratches. The flower is more or less dew according to the quality of the ground.
The seedlings are hermaphrodites. The dissemination is barochore. The seeds fall to the foot from the plant. That explains the dense formation of floor of plants. Whereas for the bluebells has a bulb like a hazel nut and its be sheets are drawn up then bent contrary to the flowers which I took in photography as you can note it.
The flower smells a little but much less than the bluebell.
The Scilla hispanica is primarily a decorative plant cut or not.

Spring thus continues to show us its charms, provided that that continue.

Bonsoir Corinne,
Je profite du printemps par ces photos, en attendant qu'il arrive sur la franche-comté ! J'aurais parié pour des jacinthes des bois, merci pour ta note, comme toujours si complète. J'aime beaucoup ces dernières, au parfum subtil, dommage que celles là ne l'aient pas, mais ça n'enlève rien à leur prestance. Merci encore du partage.
Antoine.

Choice of the white border is excellent and gives it a befitting 'lift' off the page :-)
