Wild garlic, also called onion grass, crow garlic or stag’s garlic (Allium „Hair”) belongs to the most original plants that you can plant on a perennial border. It develops straight, naked stems that grow 50 – 70 cm tall and blooms in May and June. These fuzzy, frizzled flower heads consisting of the dark purple, round centres and long, hair–thin, green petals that stretch out in all directions, are the main ornament of this plant.

This extravagant plant is resistant to periodical water shortages and frosts. We recommend to grow it on sunny or mostly sunny sites in permeable, cultivated soil. It harmonises beautifully with other leeks and garlics, as well as with other plants at the front of the multi–species arrangements, but may also be cut for dried bouquets. Wild garlic Hair belongs to the melliferous species, hence it attracts butterflies and bees to the garden. Its bulbs should be planted in autumn – from September to October – 6–8 cm deep in 10 x 10 cm spacings.
