Note the bulblets in the flower cluster, which can sprout into new plants after they fall off. They are a form of vegetative reproduction -- an alternative to seeds. Sometimes wild garlic will produce only bulblets, no flowers. This plant is not the same as field garlic (Allium vineale), which is a common weed in lawns and gardens. Wild garlic has flat leaves; field garlic has round, hollow leaves.
