Title: Summer-flowering allium IDd by Alberto (ezeiza) and Oron as A. tuberosum
Post by: Fleur Pavlidis on September 14, 2011, 10:48:48 PM

A summer-flowering allium, here growing in a pot at the MGS garden but will bloom planted out. It's better with summer irrigation but survives and blooms, though less freely, without. It's very easy to propagate and we can supply seeds once we have a name.

Allium tuberosum, "Chinese chives"?

Yes, it is A. tuberosum.
A late summer bloomer. [September]
