About Trey Tarrant
Expertise
I can answer questions about plant identification, plant care, plant pest management, landscaping, and general gardening questions. Please post a picture of the plant you wish to identify, if possible. If you say something like, "I've got this plant and it's green with long leaves and white flowers" and do not include a picture, chances are I won't be able to help you. I may not be able to help with plants that are not grown in the Southeast/ Eastern US, but you're welcome to try me.

We moved into a new house and have some bulbs blooming right now that I am unfamilier with. They are a low growing,with green follage with purple blooms. I have not seen before? Any ideas?

Answer
I can't be sure without a picture, but Hyacinths can be purple, and are blooming now in Alabama where I am. See the image search below to see if I'm right. If not, I might be able to help you if you upload a picture.
