Hi! I run the Ramps! King of Stink website. I wanted to thank you for linking to it.

Also, I wanted to say that if you dig some up, all you have to do is take a sniff and you'll know they're ramps. If you're still not sure, you'll know by the time you get to the extension office. Your car will reek! They smell more garlicky that wild onions and have a broader leaf.

I don't know why Earthy Delights lists ramps and wild leeks separately unless, they get the ramps from somewhere else and then sell locally grown wild leeks a month later. They are based out of Michigan and people do call them wild leeks there. I think they are the same plant.
