They spent the winter in a dark cabinet under our beach bag. I was able to plant them just a few weeks ago when night time temps were in the 30’s and I’m so pleased to report that they are growing like mad!!!Fingers crossed they bloom this summer, but I’m just happy they are still kicking. The bulbs are durable enough to survive intense neglect it seems. I’d love to see some overall pics of your late spring garden too.

I’ll have to remember to plan ahead for next year. Do you have any photos of it as part of the garden? The closeup shots are lovely, but it’d be fun to see how the allium works in the overall garden design. Thanks as always for the great posts!
