Lots to ID after I have investigated the garden!

Hi all,

I have a few pics I'd like to identify after investigating my garden!


I found these growing under the fairly large Pine tree in the far right hand corner of our garden (pic below of the tree)..... there are loads! I thought it was over grown grass at first, until I pulled one up and found this:

My nan thought it was garlic, and it does smell like garlic, but I think it could be a Spring Onion?


The next one to ID is poking through a grass ridden flower bed:

This one has changed colour from green to reddy brown:

This tree is obviously a Pine of some sort, and I apologise about the bad full length pic - but as you can hopefully see the branches do not start until half way up the tree, with no visible signs of pruning:

I hope they all upload ok - and that I haven't clogged up the boards with this many pictures!

Any thoughts would be great

 

First one looks very much like spring onion

 

:D The only reason I asked is because I thought it was waaay to early for spring onions! And it does look like some pictures of garlic I have seen on the net...... I thought it might be under developed or something!

I have just found some pictures of Spirea goldflame on the net and I like it! Looking forward to it getting some leaves back! thank you.

 

I always thought xmas trees had branches all the way down There goes my hopes of having a posh tree!

Thank you all for your replies, I have searched for the Madonna Lily and it is lovely! I can't wait to see if it survives and flowers!

 

With regards to the Spring Onions, how do I know when they are ready to eat?? They are quite thin at the moment.... I'm not a spring onion lover to be honest but hubs loves them.

 

They could be Japanese bunching onions rather than true jibbons, ( sorry, spring onions ) lol
