I started with 6 Babington bulbils about 15 years ago. I still don't have a good sized clump of them. They're not one for a quick return!
I've planted them, and the Elephant garlic in several places around the garden (which is mostly tree covered) hoping to find a spot where they're really happy. When they are growing, I find it difficult to distinguish between the two alliums, its only when they flower that I know which is which.
We have an invasive allium here - Allium triquestrum (Three cornered leek) - that one spreads too well. I like it to look at and to use in cooking, but it has to be kept in check or it will be everywhere. Be warned.
