A rare, wild native of the coast of south-west England and west Ireland. It's grown as a garden ornamental or an annual vegetable crop. It's unusual in that it produces mildly garlic tasting bulbils in the flowerhead - these can be easily grown into new plants. Plants come into growth from the autumn and become dormant by the summer. Height up to 1.8 metres. Moisture retentive but well-drained, humus rich soil in full sun to light shade.
GROWING INSTRUCTIONS:
Plant the bulbils from autumn to early spring at twice the bulbil’s depth, pointy end up. Can be sown direct or in pots. Bulbils come into growth easily.
