Allium really presents such intricate blooms. The bokak and color combo are very eye catching!

Cheers...Donna 😊

Many thanks, Donna.

I have several other Alliums in bloom in other pots but they are mainly a different variety and don't have the lovely compact ball shape shown by this one ?

Thanks again
Peter

I have quite a few in my garden, the Allium siculum is another variety that has lovely hanging bell shaped flowers

Kind regards Maria
