The more I look at it i think it is a rare color form of Muscari neglectum.
I excluded any hybridization with other species from the muscarimia group due to the structure of the flowers.
To my knowledge [off course i might be wrong] there aren't any other species in that area that your plant might belong to.

I had a similar idea, Oron- a plant with less dark blue pigmentation.

Not sure if this is the correct page for this one?  Hyacinthella glabrescens, maybe I should have given it another week before picturing it but, God help us, it didn't rain today. Cold though and very grey and not a day to be hanging around out doors.

And a little cutie it is too, David. I can't say I blame you for taking the picture early, mine were just putting their noses up last week before the snow- won't see them again for a week or two now  ::)

A tantalising glimpse of your Hycinthella glabrescens though, David, and really pretty colour - a sort Delft blue - when fully out can you post another photo?

Another super early bulb David, was this one under the Mrs radar too!?
Hristo passed away, after a long illness, on 11th November 2018. His support of SRGC was  much appreciated.

I agree with Oron, Hans,  the Hyacinthella lazulina colour is superb against the rocks - I love it  :D

Thanks Robin and Oron!

Actually flowering Muscari inconstrictum, something different to those Oron posted.
