I am in South Africa. Do you have a picture of your wild garlic? I would like to see it. You can follow the ling Wild garlic to read more on the South African version.
So - the white-flowered plant with the sword-shaped deep green leaves is wild garlic Allium ursinum – known as ramsons, buckrams, wild garlic, broad-leaved garlic, wood garlic, bear leek, or bear's garlic – is a wild relative of chives native to Europe and Asia.
There's a useful wikipedia article but the photos below are from my garden.
That is very interesting, they look completely different from our wild garlic, but they also have beautiful flowers. I will go and read the article wikipedia
