I love garlic flowers. I used to always let them bloom and dry the huge pink flowers for arrangements.

Good for you Larry! Garlic and onions are probably the most used vegetables, this year I have a lot of onions and get to use them every day.

I'm doing something weird this year -- planting wild onions in pots. I dug some up from my old house, and also have the seed-onions from the top. I really liked the strong, garlicky flavor of these wild ones.

Those look delicious. How do you use them ... in stir fries or just fresh? I've never been able to grow garlic and never had a chance to harvest garlic scapes.

Dirtygardener ... that's not weird ... that's resourceful. :) I just found a couple of huge patches of wild garlic in a vacant lot a couple of blocks from my house and transplanted six big clumps last week. It smells divine. I think I got meadow garlic (Allium canadense) ... it seems to be the one most common in central Florida.
