So this is by now about 1 month over due. But you were indeed correct. These were Stars of Bethlehem. Relevant picture attached.

Haters will say it's staged

Wasn't there a Fort Minor song about this?

In principle, probably fine. But also, I'm new to the area. I don't know the climate region. In fact, this is a relatively new continent to me... Maybe I'm too cautious for not eating them but also... Yer shouldn't eat what yer don't knoo.

[–] Sir_Premiumhengst 1 points 4 months ago

Well... On second thought and after seeing all these comments... I'll let some flower and we'll see what they were.

Huh. TIL about Corms. And how they place relative to bulbs, rhizomes, and tubers. I used to think seed -> soil -> ??? -> profit.

I guess, for me as a hobby grower that's still unchanged. But I'm starting think about vegetation around me and how it tries to stay alive from season to season.

They do not smell of garlic. Oh well.

Pretty! There are some around which didn't interfere with my gardening. Will post update when/if they bloom.

[–] Sir_Premiumhengst 8 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Hmm that be quite pretty. There are still some left around the area of the raised bed which I guess I'll just allow to flower and see what happens. Will post an update if I remember.

Lol yeah. There's a German saying "was der Bauer nicht kennt, isst er nicht", that is, "what the farmer doesn't know, he won't eat".

Usually said as a phase to excuse picky eating but it does, in broader terms, have some wisdom behind it.

I certainly won't eat it.

Huh... Checks out. Rad!

What are they? (lemmy.world)
 

Hi! Any idea on what those are? I found them in my raised bed while preparing it for the spring season. They look like little onions but have the texture of potatoes.

I live in Georgia, USA.

Thanks for putting the sauce with it
