From the look and the feel, it appears to be wild onions. I haven’t pulled one up yet to check for an onion bulb just yet. But maybe I should.
Texas is blessed with several wild species with Drummond wild onion (Allium drummondii), the most common. It has attractive white, pink or reddish flowers, and its bulbs are edible – as are the bulbs of the other wild onions.
But I have to be certain they are actually onions and not the poisonous look alike.
Nothoscordum bivalve (Crow poison) looks very much like the Allium species. However, you can tell them apart by smelling them. The Allium species smell like onions or garlic-the crow poison smells musky. Also, crow poison has cream-colored flowers and the Allium has white, pink or lavender colored flowers.
