Garlic is a bulbous perennial herb in the Amaryllidaceae family, growing to about 0.6 meters tall. The entire plant is edible, with the bulb being the most commonly harvested part for its pungent flavor; leaves and flowers are milder and can be used fresh in salads or cooked. It is hermaphroditic and pollinated by bees and insects, and is noted for attracting wildlife.
