twincrest onion or simply wild onion

Description:

It is a perennial that thrives under damp and shady conditions or open meadows in the Pacific region in California, Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada, Oregon, Idaho, and Utah. Allium bisceptrum is used sometimes as food flavoring as their leaves may be very strong and odorous. Natives pray before picking the leaves of this plant. Many animals in the region, including elk, black bears and prairie dogs eat the bulbs of the wild onions.
