Garlic mustard; you ain’t getting any garlic bulbs out of that!

Fills out the understory pretty effectively there.

Edit: I didn’t look at the flowers or leaves or really anything up close and lept to a conclusion. It’s wild garlic as OP pointed out below, just an amount I’m not accustomed to seeing.

Neither are you getting any mustard: Wild garlic.

Yeah you’re right, I didn’t zoom in. Flowers are entirely different for a start.

I was recently on a hike where I saw large swaths of wild garlic (and the flowers did match). You can see it continues in the distance

i had the same thought hahahaha

garlic mustard is delish you gotta grab it up early though

Hmm, bit late but if you pick it before they bloom, its delicious.

Yep, this was the last harvest for the year, including some blossoms for making wild garlic oil.

Oh, wow, didn't know that's a wild garlic flower. I've seen them before, thought they were something else entirely.
