Meadow garlic (Allium canadense) has edible flowers, leaves, and bulbs.

More info on Plants for a Future.

Special note: keep in mind that Allium plants smell like onions or garlic. There are a number of lookalikes, some poisonous or even deadly, like the death camas, which has a very onion-like bulb and similar-looking flowers and leaves. If it doesn’t have an onion/garlic smell, it’s not an onion or garlic plant.
