Back yard across a salt marsh from me. They owners are restoring a house from the 1830s. The area with the chionodoxa was overgrown a year ago. I had noticed the blue color in the spring, asked the owners what it is and they said come on over, take some pictures and tell us what it is...we have no idea.

Chionodoxa must be salt tolerant. We do get surges in this salt marsh. Sure at least a few times a year, some of where the chionodoxa grows is under very brackish water (this lot is half a mile up the Indian river from Long Island Sound).
