Ornithogalum sintenisii

 
Family hyacinthaceae
Life cycle perennial bulb
Flowers white (early spring)
Size 4"
Light sun-part shade

This Mediterranean plant carries starry white flowers on short stems. Pacific Bulb Society only notes that it is hardy "at least to 20°F" (that doesn't do me much good in zone 6), but the seed came from a Philadelphia-area gardener, so I'm hopeful it may prove hardy.

This plant used to grow in our garden, but it slipped away...
