Any flower experts?

Hi, I recently bought a small potted plant in Holland, and I'm wondering what it is.

The pot consists of about 9 bulbs that are sitting on top of the soil with green shoots coming out of them. They have recently started flowering bell shaped flowers similar to bluebells (but i don't think they are).

Any ideas?

Update:

Yeah i thought they were hyacinths too, but my friend said they weren't, ha ha maybe i was right

    Could it be Scilla?

    If the bulbs are fairly small, it is probably a form of Muscari or Spanish Bluebells.

    ...in the off chance that kruxtrucks is right, we should exchange numbers (just kidding)

    Seriously though, it sounds much more like a type of hyacinth. Does the picture (link) below look familar?

    If you want to check using the plant names given here, look in "IMAGES" in Yahoo Search. I've just found pictures of Scilla, Ceanothus etc and answered some of my own questions as well.
