ALLIUM 2016
« on: January 17, 2016, 04:54:30 PM »
It's a nice day to open the new allium season of 2016,
We have the first real frost and a little snow of this winter here today.
I hope I can find some more time to post photo's of our allium fields and allium collection this year.
Last year there was no time left.......

It is very early this year! we had a little frost so far, but that was only a few days and no real cold period.
The weather now is wet and normal, so they don't grow to fast now.....
I hope we don't get any real frost anymore.......

A query regarding Allium bodeanum.

Several sites I have looked at suggest this is a synonym of Allium cristophii but many suppliers and members of this forum use Allium bodeanum.

Is someone able to explain the apparent confusion and current nomenclature, please?

The Catalogue of Life says that A. christophii is the accepted name while A.bodeanum is a synonym for the same plant.

That is what I have found on several sites, Lori. Most confusing is:
http://www.eu-nomen.eu/portal/taxon.php?GUID=A9137916-9B04-4ED2-9783-CB963E2752C5#
where they call A. bodeanum a 'heterotypic synonym', which I don't pretend to fully understand.

Why is it them that some noted suppliers and members of this forum are using A. bodeanum?
