Cassie Stark, who spearheaded the study as a master’s degree student, studied four populations each of Allium tricoccum and Allium burdickii in southwestern Pennsylvania, and compared and contrasted the habitats where they were found. She is shown in a population of Allium burdickii — commonly known as narrow-leaved wild leek
This large patch of Allium tricoccum is populated by the broader-leafed ramps that are common across Pennsylvania. They have been collected and eaten for thousands of years, starting with Native Americans. More recently, they have become popular among foodies and restaurant chefs, leading to an increased demand by urban consumers.
