Some alliums still brighten autumn days
1.Allium globosum ssp. psebaicum
2.Allium rupestre
3. An erreneous bulb received as Allium subhirsutum. Any ID ideas?

Thank you, Armin. It's a hint. Seems similar. I'll look through pictures and descriptions of A.lenkoranicum.

Oleg, the photos from your garden still show some lovely plants in flower - it must have been wonderful to come home from holiday to such a welcome  :)
I still looks quite warm - how long does your autumn weather last?

I'll second that - Outstanding! 
What the uninitiated cannot see is that it is a really tiny flower, looking better in the photo than it does in the garden here.  How hardy?  I have grown it and lost it but I don't think the cold killed it.  We get down to -8C.
