Abstract and summary

The various descriptive names used in the literature for each bulb type of wild garlic are reviewed and a suggested standard system of bulb nomenclature is presented. The life cycle of the species is briefly reviewed, with emphasis on cycles between plant and bulb types. The morphology, anatomy, ontogeny and physiology of the common bulb types are compared.
