Species Alliums being edible? Allium ampeloprasum

I have to spray against rust here too
a little to late and there is no harvest

Roland thanks for that tip!
I had noticed that bulbs of garlic left in the ground produced a lot of
leaves in spring.
I have a great tuft right now in the middle of the veg plot!
But I will still have a soft spot for elephant garlic.
Spring planted cloves of Allium sativum never do much here.
They get terrible rust and barely survive.
Autumn plantings are fine.

If you want less heavy garlic taste you just use the leaves from the

garlic

the plants you just leave in the soil the whole year
Good time for planting them is now
and you can enjoy them the whole summer
I have maybe 10 varieties for you if you want
