I have planted many alliums in my garden but there is not enough chill hours
to keep them coming back.
I do have a nice stand of what was given to me called "drumstick alliums".
They have come back and even increased here in zone 9. I'll share some with
Chad.
A bit of garden humor, my husband wasn't very fond of them BUT, now that he
is an avid beekeeper, he likes everything the bees like and is anticipating
those "bee balls" blooming soon. They did indeed look like purple balls
covered in bees. I had many plants he wasn't fond of but when he sees the bees
all over them his preferences change fast and they have become desirable
plants.
Every year I say I am going to the Chelsea flower show and then get so busy
in my own garden I forget all about it. This year I did go to the National
Iris Convention but my own garden was in such lush gorgeous bloom I had many
moments of wondering what I was doing at the National Convention.
