Ramsons

We only have a few plants of Ramsons or Wild Garlic at Filnore  ..  ..  .. 

..  ..  ..  but hopefully they will increase if we keep the canopy open.  

This photo was taken in a wood in Damery.

When I was recently at Orielton Field Centre in Pembrokeshire (teaching my annual course on Woodland Manangement for Conservation - plug, plug) we were given a risotto including wild garlic leaves and on another evenng, a salad with the flowers.  I noticed that the berries are particularly peppery.

BTW the Field Studies Council runs a lot of very good wildlife courses.
