Yes, I eat the Three cornered leeks but I don[t recommend planting them except in a container as they spread easily.

I just had a google of the three cornered leeks. I like the look of them. Definitely one for pot growing.

If they weren't invasive, they're worth growing. The flowers are lovely - like white bluebells. The leaves are usable throughout winter when there's not much else. They're like spring onions.
I made a mistake by planting them as I hadn't realised at the time how much they spread. I dig up clumps of them now, eat the leaves and burn the roots (NOT in the compost!). Also mow off the flowers before they set seed.
Such a shame as, otherwise, they have everything going for them.

Foiled by a three cornered leek! Never heard of the darn things! Apparently, on reading up on them, its an offence to grow this in the wild as its so invasive.
