Hi there,

We've planted a range of bulbs and a few of these have sprung up but we're not sure what they are... haha. Any ideas please?



Thanks,

Andrew

    Thank you both - look forward to when it flowers one year but they're very attractive plants all the same 🙂

    A previous poster about Nectaroscordum Sciculum said the seed heads were very attractive too. Mine are just at the flowering stage. I love the common name of Sicilian HoneyGarlic.

    To the seed heads look like little fairy castle turrets.
