    I love those, mine aren't out yet. Siculum nectaroscordum. Allium relative, sniff the leaves.

    They seed around KEF. Shall I save you some?

    I have no idea where it came from, as I definitely did not plant it.  Will it seed around, or will I have to dig it up and split the bulb when it dies down.  Thanks for any help.

    It will seed around. image

    I love these and so do the bumble bees, i have had loads of them in the garden pollinating them, once they have pollinated them the flowers stand erect, common name Sicilian honey garlic, ive planted mine near my clematis and the clematis has clung on so no need for staking them, beautiful.
