Allium christophii

We have grown this for many years on a sunny bank where it has seeded itself. The medium sized flower heads of this tall allium are fascinating, with star like shiny pink-purple flowers, which die back to leave a delicate and decorative interlocking globe. Height 18”, flowering in June. AGM
