Flowering now from Luc -
Allium capitellatum JJA131185
collected near Siah Bisheh, Mazandaran Iran

"Worth growing because of the late flowering. The bulbs are in flower now after the leaves are gone dormant. Height is some 35 cm. I don't remember how long it took to get flowering bulbs. I guess at least 5-6 years after germination."

Some years ago Jane McGary, well-known American bulb grower, shared photos of plants she is growing from Archibald seed with the SRGC for the Archive. These photos were added to the master-list of JJA seeds back then but I only now have a chance to add them here too. I think it's good to have them available in the forum too, for searching .
