Blooming Ramps
Allium triccocum sends up its single bloom stalk well after the leaves have left the premises.

Mine didn't look like that. I still have pressed leaves of that plant. Can't get calligraphy written word for plant. It may fall apart when taken out of the frame.
Those are ramp flowers Lola. They have not opened yet. The leaves and blooms are two very separated events.
I look forward to seeing these open! You really DO have a "floriferous" meadow. (I borrowed your word - but my word-check doesn't want to allow it. What's up with that?)
Thanks for the education on "ramps"....I'd heard of them but not seen them...including your detailed description.
