What is gandana in english?

The name Allium porrum was given to leek by Linnaeus, and this name is still quite widely used. It is a cultivar of Allium ampeloprasum L., i.e. the broadleaf wild leek. Leeks have a mild, onion-like taste. In its raw state, the vegetable is crunchy and firm. The edible portions of the leek are the white base of the leaves (above the roots and stem base), the light green parts, and to a lesser extent the dark green parts of the leaves. One of the most popular uses is for adding flavor to stock. The dark green portion is usually discarded because it has a tough texture, but it can be sautéed or added to stock. Kurrats and elephant garlic are two other vegetables closely related to the leek.

In English, Gandana (Allium porrum L.) is known by Garden leek or Leek.

In English, Gandana (Allium schoenoprasum L.) is known by Chive or Chives.

Allium cepa L. var. Aggregatum contains shallots and potato onions, also referred to as multiplier onions. The bulbs are smaller than those of common onions, and a single plant forms an aggregate cluster of several bulbs. They are propagated almost exclusively from daughter bulbs, although reproduction from seed is possible. Shallots are the most important subgroup within this group and comprise the only cultivars cultivated commercially. They form aggregate clusters of small, narrowly ovoid to pear-shaped bulbs. Potato onions differ from shallots in forming larger bulbs with fewer bulbs per cluster, and having a flattened (onion-like) shape. However, intermediate forms exist.

In English, Gandana (Allium cepa L. var. aggregatum G. Don) is known by Multiplier onion, Potato onion, or Shallot.
