Description

Allium tricoccum (Wild Leek/Ramps)Allium tricoccum (Wild Leek Ramps) is a species that occasionally is in northern and central Illinois woodlands, and more common in the Indiana and Michigan woodlands. It is a bit unusual in that it shoots out its leaves in early spring, the leaves wither away in late spring, then the flowers, seemingly magic, pop from the earth with no leaves. It is similar in habitat to surprise lilies. The foliage and the flowers are quite attractive so it performs

it does require pollination from distant relatives to produce its fruit

The soil pH should be between 5

sooooo cute

Its attractive foliage and bloom add to its alluring effect and with correct soil and moisture conditions deterring it from drought

Pollinators also get a kick out of this early season flower

the manicured topiary shape remains throughout the season if you are in the pristine look

it opens in the morning and closes by midday unless it's cloudy

Carex lurida (Sallow Sedge) is a wetland sedge commonly found in prairie swales
