    The highland wild garlic is a perennial and quite variable herb that grows from a corm. The plant smells of garlic, as do several of the other species of the genus. The leaves are linear or strap-shaped.

    Several green and white flowers form the typical inflorescence. The flower has a conspicuous, fleshy, light red inner corona. The photo was taken near Roossenekal during September.
