A perennial plant of the Liliaceae family (APG classification: Amaryllidaceae). The bulbs are lanceolate and covered with a fibrous, mesh-like outer skin. Young plants have only one narrow, oblong leaf, but mature plants have two oblong leaves. The leaf blade is slightly fleshy, dark green, 20-30 cm long, and has a sheath at the base that encases the flower stalk. In May and June, a 40-70 cm flower stalk appears, with an umbel at the tip. The flowers are white and look like green onions, and the large number of flowers make the plant spherical. It grows widely from Hokkaido and central-northern Honshu to mainland China, and the parent species is distributed in Europe. The name means "garlic eaten by ascetics." It has an extremely strong odor, but is edible. [Akira Kono January 21, 2019] The leaf blade is 20-30cm long, elliptical, and slightly fleshy.
