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.

WoW What a friendly group 31 views and not even a "hello"


You would be referring to garden banter. Many of the replies you
get will not be from there but from a Usenet group rec.gardens that
garden banter links to.

I cannot speak for the banterers but on Usenet it may take a little
while to be warmly accepted. Most people are cautious because some
people are crazy/rude/nasty/deceitful/brainless/wasters. It is sad
that you have to show you are not one of those not the other way
around. This is a poor reflection on humanity overall that when
given the shield of anonymity a significant minority will behave
badly in social interactions but that is how it is.

DAvid, since you are responding, I presume that you are not involved
with the flooding.


I have bozo-binned about 20 in the last two weeks so I don't see too much of
it. The OP has the benefit of the doubt for now.
