Wild garlic

In the garden there is a shady area with these beautiful white flowers in bloom. Be very careful as it is wild garlic and even the green leaves have a very strong garlic smell.

This reminds me of a school journey I went on to the Wye Valley when I was in the 4th year (15 years old). We were out walking - in the rain - and I slipped down a muddy bank with wild garlic growing. All of my clothes had that strong smell for ages!! LOL!!

I am laughing as I have just spotted Finlay's ear top left hand corner - he loves rummaging in the undergrowth!!

Very strong smell indeed, but oh how reminiscent of Spring walks in the woods.

Is the garlic edible? I cook with garlic a lot. It does make a pretty plant.

[Merrelyn]

It's pretty plant.

So pretty. I planted some of this in the woodland behind us a few years back and this year I have noticed it has migrated into the bottom of our garden, no complaints it looks and smells lovely.

I wouldn’t have realised that this is wild garlic but it’s really pretty

I love the smell of wild garlic....looks pretty too. I have just bought some wild garlic pesto from our closed restaurant which is doing a little takeaway gourmet shop.

Lol, just read your commentary. I love the smell of wild garlic but I’ve never rolled in it!
