yes, Alliaria petiolata (syn: Sisymbrium alliaria) germanname: Knoblauchsrauke also occurs in plenty in my garden. I know and have in my garden three garlic smelling plants in my garden. Knoblauchsrauke (Alliaria petiolata), Schnittlauch (Allium schoenoprasum) and Bärlauch (Allium ursinum). Shall upload the fotos in separate mails, now that my computer is working again.
