Grow a prized native woodland edible with Wild Leek, a greenhouse-grown starter live plant valued for its rich garlic-onion flavor, attractive broad green leaves, and importance in native forest ecosystems. Allium tricoccum, commonly known as Wild Leek or Ramps, is a hardy North American native perennial that naturally grows in rich deciduous woodlands. It is highly sought after by gardeners and foragers for its flavorful foliage and bulbs, making it an excellent addition to woodland gardens, shade gardens, edible landscapes, and native plant collections.
Please Read: This plant ships dormant. Depending on the season, your starter plant may arrive with little or no visible top growth. Dormancy is a natural part of the plant's life cycle. Healthy roots and bulbs will produce new growth during the appropriate growing season.
Wild Leeks thrive in partial to full shade and prefer rich, moist, well-draining soil high in organic matter. Plants emerge in early spring with broad, smooth leaves before naturally going dormant by early summer. Mature plants may produce slender flower stalks with rounded clusters of small white flowers after the foliage has died back. Once established, Wild Leeks slowly spread to form attractive colonies, creating a beautiful and sustainable woodland planting.
You will receive one healthy, greenhouse-grown Wild Leek (Ramps) starter live plant, carefully packaged for safe arrival.
