Caloscordum nerinifolium

[Palustris]

Hope I spelled that correctly.
Question,
Do they change from bright pink to a lovely pale pink as the flowers age. Or have I got some  colour variant coming into flower?
Cheers!

 Caloscordum neriniflorum (syn.Allium neriniflorum) does  indeed  fade  colour  from its  flowers  as  they  age - so I think you  can  be   confident  in  your  plant !

Caloscordum neriniflorum (syn.Allium neriniflorum) does  indeed  fade  colour  from its  flowers  as  they  age- and  there  are  known colour  variants  depending  on  provenance - so I think you  can  be   confident  in  your  plant !

Beginning to wonder if I DO have two different  Alliums in the same clump.

Standard Allium

Different one.
What do you think?

[Maggi Young]

Ooh, errr um.... well yes those  do seem like  two different types!

Not many alpines sirvive in the hot and soggy Kentucky summers but Caloscordum neriniflorum seems to have survived in a pile of sand and limestone
