LOL! It seems nobody IS interested!


Well, we had wanted ransoms for some time - but after your photos, I
think we'll do without ;-)

But that was the whole point of the discussion - his are not ramsons.
His are the three-cornered leek - a different species altogether.

Those things are definitely not ramsons - leaves are far too narrow.

The pic is a very scary one loop: I think people are not posting because
they are afraid of attracting their attention....

I should have read the whole lot all at once - I obviously lost the
thread of the discussion (while sneaking looks while my conscience
muttered on my shoulder that I should be working....). But that's great
news - I'll go back to planning for ramsons again.

OK, then, if you're into wild flowers and have room, I think you
should grow three-cornered leeks too: I just can't believe they'll
take over your garden over there, and they're delightful. A patch of
them looks very good near a patch of English bluebells -- the unwary
think they're just white bluebells, but of course they're only very
distantly related.

Ramsons will grow in a well-lit spot, but they much prefer shady
moist conditions. I had them downstream from my snowdrop hordes, and
near primroses; best in that kind of informal situation. I haven't
heard from a urg member I posted a few to a year or so back -- hope
he hasn't been smothered by them! I'm afraid I can't offer you any,
as I've moved.

We're shady and we're damp (and acid) - though, sadly, without a stream
-and we have the bluebells, so it sounds the ideal condition!
