Allium vineale

There are native species with the same common name and similar look. Compare with native A. canadense. Edible but with strong garlic taste, this species is found in disturbed areas, old fields, pastures and is very difficult to eradicate. The leaves of A. vineale are elliptic in cross-section with a hollow interior (at least at their bases), while A. candadense has leaves that are flat and solid throughout.
