Hi! Any idea on what those are? I found them in my raised bed while preparing it for the spring season. They look like little onions but have the texture of potatoes.

I live in Georgia, USA.

    Ran your photo through a plant detection app (Picture This) and got the result Star of Bethlehem. They do grow in your area, and do be careful because the bulbs are toxic!

    If these are indeed Star of Bethlehem, you should be able to confirm the identification when they bloom. The flowers would look like this:

      Pretty! There are some around which didn’t interfere with my gardening. Will post update when/if they bloom.

      So this is by now about 1 month over due. But you were indeed correct. These were Stars of Bethlehem. Relevant picture attached.

        Pretty flowers and closure. Two of my favorite things. Crazy that the AI could detect exactly what they were based on the original image. Thanks for following up!
