Muscari IDs needed

Hi,

I have two rogue individual Muscari species blooming. I believe the plants
resulted from dumping out old ungerminated seed pots, so I have little idea
about what they might be. I'd appreciate any ID suggestions.

The first one has several small boat-spaped leaves, and a tight spike of
azure blue flowers, about 3-4" tall.

The second has a single enveloping leaf, and very dark purple buds. I think
this one might be M. latifolium.
