Probably a young Amianthium muscaetoxicum. If you want to pot it, you'll need to take about 2.5 gallons worth of soil in one big undisturbed clump. They like wooded areas so no direct sunlight. Don't eat it. You can use the crushed bulbs mixed with sugar to kill flies.

I don't think its Amianthium muscaetoxicum, we've gotten these for a few years now and they don't get flowers like that plant. Cool info tho, ill definitely keep an eye out for that now.

It does have white bulbs that are layered like an onion too. Cant really smell anything from it though, I figure it might be too young for that.

I got these in my backyard i think. If they will give purple flowers, you can eat the bulb. It tastes like a fuck, tho.

Hi, I'm in northern Illinois
I don't know what that is but I can tell you from the flower that it is not wild onion or garlic. The flower buds for both of those appear in a sheath that then pops open, not a naked cone like that. Also, wild onion leaves are flat, and not scooped out like those appear to. Wild garlic leaves are like long, narrow straws coming to a point, often with little curlicues at the ends. I also don't think it's amianthium muscaetoxicum (also known as fly poison) since i believe the leaves for that are creased along the center of the leaf and pointed, and again, not hollow. As for the bulb and the smell, a lot of things have bulbs, and that shouldn't make you think something is an onion. Most bulbs are layered like that. Trout lilies and lily of the valley have bulbs that look similar to wild onions and minus the fact that they don't have creased leaves, could easily be mistaken by a novice for wild leek, and while you can eat trout lilies, neither of those are onions, and if you eat lily of the valley it could be a one-way ticket to the hospital. I actually went picking onions yesterday, and they have only just recently started to come up where I am (also too early for flower stalks), maybe just last week was when I first saw them this year in my area. Being in Michigan, things are probably coming in even later for you. But I can tell you that even when they are new shoots, onions will smell like onions, especially at the size of whatever plant that is. The smell is probably your surest bet for identifying onions, actually, if all else fails. Did you consult any sort of guide? I really recommend that if you actually want to forage in the woods that you get some sort of field guide. Peterson's guide to edible plants is a pretty good start.

Those are "grape hyacinth". Only some species of it are edible.

Oh shit man thanks for the info. I'll probably just watch them and see how they grow I suppose. won't risk eating them. And yeah my buddy loaned me his guide to edible plants for northeast America.
