Hi all,
I'm new to the forum so first off a big hello I've stated to do some
work on my garden at my new flat and have noticed that my borders are
over grown with a plant that I need to identify. It's about 8" high and
the stem looks a bit like a daffodil but thinner with a richer green
colour plus a very small bulb, it also gives off a smell like garlic
when cut?
Any ideas??

Thanks,
Centurion.

A photo would help identify your plant. DO NOT attach a photo to your
reply; instead, upload it to a Web site for photos.

In the meantime, it might be society garlic (Tulbaghia violacea), which
has small, lavender flowers that are edible (interesting in salads).
