Hi,
Planted this ages ago
Can't find the seed packet and would love to know what it's called
The bees certainly love it!
Thanks 😊

They are honey lillies . Still to flower , pretty little flowers that hang down. The bees love them when they finally flower.

They’re bulbs - a relative of onions and garlic

But it would have been bulbs rather than seeds, I think

They’ve actually flowered - the flowers close and point up once pollinated

Sicilian honey garlic. See pics.
