Topic: wild garlic

I've collected it in the woods, but not grown it. I used to use it when I was camping.

Have used the leaves in soup in previous years. Very tasty, although people tend to keep their distance  ;D

Does spread everywhere, but grows quite close together so makes a lovely green carpet.

PM sent (I think).

why bother? it self-seeds everywhere, needs damp shade, and ain't as strong in flavour as 'normal' garlic!! ;)

"Needs damp shade"?.... I've got the sad bit behind my shed under the trees at the bottom of the plot... nothing useful grows there ATM.... a garlicky-flavoured chivy thing might be just the job :D

Package dispatched today - 2nd class. There should be enough for about a square foot.

If the constabulary come a-knocking and making inquiries, you don't know me and have never heard of any Pesky Wabbit. OK ? Mums the word.  :P

PS. Open package in a well ventilated space, otherwise the aroma could blow your socks off.

All received!!! many thanks.... if there's anything I can do for you, just drop m a line...

Great. Glad I could spread a little aroma around.  8)

Just plant them ASAP, as soon as the rain/snow stops falling.  :(
