Wild garlic query

Post: # 153710Post Masco&Bongo »

I've been given some wild garlic from a friend's woodland...

I love the stuff, so am really pleased to get some!

However, I'm in a quandry about where to plant it. Should it go in the veg patch, under the trees in our little orchard, in a little bit of under-tree wasteland at the side of the house, or in the front garden borders?

I know it apparantly can be very invasive, so I'm trying to think of places where I don't mind it spreading!

Tis Ok...

They are the nicknames of me and OH, thoughtfully given to us by our 3 year old godson... still going 6 years later. it has got to the point where members of my family no longer address me by name, but instead, call me Bongo :roll:

Originally signed up here as both of us would be using it, and instead it's just me... never got round to asking for it to be changed!!
