Show off your allium blooms!
The bulb forum is super quiet so hope it's okay to bring this up here. I absolutely love allium. They're so whimsical and completely carefree here. Azureum was a new one for me this year. I love the powder blue color!
Globemaster - love these
I believe this one is sensation
Would love to see photos of your allium! I have more sensation and Neapolitanum ordered for fall. Looking for some other varieties!

Showing off Ann's/Cindee's crosses of 2007 now blooming
Comments (4)Yes, Mr Arif. And I have already started the programme. Up to now, I have made 16 crosses out of these and a few other blooms in my garden. I hope to be able to increase my collection of hippeastrums. Thank you for you wish. Xuan...See MoreShow off your favorite pictures of your collections...
Comments (79)No rot at all - perhaps it's just because none of the water actually comes in contact with the plants? It's very low maintenance and has made for some nice growth. Whenever any of them start to look a little dehydrated, I just put the top on for a few days to really kick up the humidity, and things just seem to do well. Looking forward to trying some other stuff the same way.

Comments (4)Yes, it could well be speciousum Rubrum. I remember spending a long time trying to decide whether to buy Dizzy or speciousum Rubrum--I just can't remember now which one I decided on. : ( Kate...See Moreshow off your pink roses (part i)
Comments (31)Hi florence, great to have you posting. And I'm glad you are enjoying these threads "showing off" our roses and getting us through the long, grey winter weather. Roses certainly can raise the spirits, can't they! Make sure you see our yellow and our red threads also--plus the stripey thread, and I see someone started a climber thread. I know you have some climbers you can add there, florence. Kate...See MoreMichaela (Zone 5b - Iowa)

8 years agoThese are great. I had three Globemaster bulbs this year, and this one was smallest but in the most prominent spot. Here it is with an unknown dark purple iris:
Here it is a bit later on with some snapdragons:
Of course chives are an allium too:

8 years agoReally enjoying this thread. I'm not sure what the name is of these alliums, but they just finished blooming this week. I like the fact that they are later. These photos are a little hot. The color is not that washed out.

8 years agoHere's Globemaster again. This started as three bulbs. They would probably appreciate being divided. They're with red perennial poppies.
I have some more varieties, but I didn't seem to take many pics this year.
