Allium atropurpureum syn. Allium nigrum var. atropurpureum

Morning folks 😀👋🏼, been away for a few days but back now. Lots of good and some bad things going on in the garden. 'Bad' -slugs/snails are on the rampage with this wet weather. 'Good' - these Alliums are now fully open. I know it doesn't look it, but it's normal for this species. Love the deep purple colouring 💜

Morning 💜👌

Bonjour Richard 👌😎👏🏼 thanks for sharing 👍

Oh I like this. I like the blue in it 😚

What a lovely photo full of bursting promise 👌🏼

Brilliant picture

Oh my, that is beautiful! 😁

Thanks @pwdin 😊 will keep you all posted when it's fully open. Should be very interesting!

@lovemygarden65 😊

I've not seen a dark flowering one before I got these, so very eager to see how they turn out @fuschia @tash74 👍🏼

Thanks @kathy 😊👍🏼

You obviously love alliums Richard. ❤️

Oh Rich somehow I just know it's going to be gorgeous 💜✨

And some more, should get a cracking display in a couple of months 😁#newgrowth

Fabulous 😊

I liked the look of the unusual flower heads on this Allium - it's more like a half sphere facing upwards rather than a complete sphere. Deep purple colouring with blueberry centres 🤓. Planted 15th December.

Sounds interesting @richard.spicer.7906

Look forward too seeing it in flower 👍
