They will flower in another couple of years. Do you want lots of Allium giganteum?

I have a few of the twister types that are very well behaved. Bought them several years ago from High Country Gardens. I just looked but they don't have them anymore. I also have 'Summer Beauty' which has clean foliage all season long. Highly recommend! I had some unknown volunteer for several years at my previous home and liked it so well I brought it with when we moved. It's blooming now. Green go, love your use of the spent flower heads. I always keep mine up even after they're brown and toasty because they're just so neat looking.

Marcia, I haven't tried 'Ivory Queen', but my 'Purple Sensation' self-seeds prolifically. For the past couple of years, I didn't weed out the seedlings and this year I had a great show of blooms. I find, however, that some (not all) of the seedlings have paler purple flowers than the parent plant. Did you start 'Ivory Queen' inside, or did you winter sow? With 'Purple Sensation', I just let the seeds fall to the ground, and they took care of themselves. (I didn't intend to propagate them...I merely left the seed heads in the garden for their decorative effect.) My chives and small Allium flava also reseed without any work from me. Doris
