Allium dichlamydeum

Broad, thick petals of deep, bright pink, sometimes tending to an almost magenta intensity, at others times to a subtle pink.

It blooms from April onwards to June and is one of the most valuable of all of the USA species. After flowering the stems dry and retain much of their colour if dried. The flat leaves are unobtrusive.

Sunny gritty spot outside is fine, increase is gentle but reliable.
