Society Garlic
Society Garlic is a popular perennial herb, famously prized for its ornamental qualities and culinary uses. The primary parts used for their culinary value are its flat, grass-like leaves, which provide a mild and savoury flavour that is often described as a perfect mix between chives and true garlic. However, its edibility doesn't stop there; the attractive, star-shaped lilac-purple flowers are also edible, carrying a similar garlic-like taste, and make a beautiful garnish for salads and savoury dishes.
When it comes to planting and maintenance, this is an easy-to-grow, clump-forming perennial, but it has specific preferences. It is not fussy about soil type but is fussy about its light conditions, requiring a location in full sun to thrive and flower profusely. The main requirement for it to grow well is providing it with soil that is well-drained, as it is very drought-tolerant once established. As an added benefit to the garden, its attractive purple flowers are known to be very popular with pollinators.
Please Note: When purchasing plants please consider that each live item is unique and may therefore differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only - The plant will be supplied in a growers pot.
