I am surprised that a google search hasn't turned up anything on South
American Alliaceae.

Other posters seem to have found something on the subject.

A little clarification. "Onion-type" plants is not the same thing as the
genus Allium. The family Alliaceae is well represented in South America
by
several genera, a number of which are endemic.

Thanks. What are these species called and are they edible? Which was all
I
asked
in my first post.
Thanks again,
Mike
