@richard.spicer.7906 Not quite the same shade of blue as on the label. I actually prefer this slightly darker shade than the one in my photo.
The colour for me is fine - it’s nice but I wish the flowers were bigger slightly and more of them to be able to notice them @ublaszko
@ublaszko @richard.spicer.7906 sad when the photo is almost to scale 😂
This is really tiny! 😲 I'm glad I haven't planted them yet. I'm going to pop them in a pot and then use them as cut flowers. There are only 3 bulbs in the packet I bought from Farmer Gracy's 😅
🤭😆
@ublaszko pop them in a tiny pot or they’ll get lost 🤣 this reminded me I bought “allium fireworks mix” from J Parker’s and I’m wondering if they’ll be as small 🙈 2 different pulchellum and 1 flavum 😜
I've had allium flavum once and they didn't flower but the actual plants were small. Maybe 30cm tall and very grassy looking leaves.
@ublaszko that sounds promising as mine have started sprouting and wondered if the leaves looked right. They do 😁 think I may have put them in too big a pot though 😂
