Everything about this leek plant is edible: leaves, bulbs and flowers. However, it is mainly the leaves that are eaten. They have a pleasantly mild garlic aroma that is classified between chives and garlic. But the lilac-colored flowers are also a decorative eye-catcher with gourmet potential. The bulb sprouts again the following year as soon as the sun warms the soil. A real spring snack!
Bee food
Hardy and perennial (unless you eat the onion)
Location: Sunny to partial shade
Growing height: 30-50 cm
USE
Individual flowers of the Garden Knobweed are pulled out of the large flower ball and are thus shown to their best advantage when garnishing salads. The fresh aromatic leaves are a delight in herb quark, herb oil and salads. They are also an excellent seasoning for soups, meat and fish dishes.
CARE
The garden knobweed is perennial, hardy and tolerates temperatures down to - 25 °C. Garden garlic prefers a humus-rich and nutrient-rich soil. Depending on the age of the plant, a few leaves can be harvested every 2 - 3 days. Garden knobweed grows just as well in containers as it does planted out in the herb garden. Seed-resistant variety.
