        I thought that but it's tiny and do iris bloom this early?

          In answer to my own question, looks like yes and yes - dwarf iris and blooms in winter!

        To me it looks like a Crocus as I can remember back to my childhood

          Someone else suggested the same but looking at some plant websites and comparing the flowers to other crocuses in my garden it's clear they aren't crocuses.

            Without any shadow of doubt these are Iris. Some of mine from the past.
