Etelka - you're the one who worked hard to make your gardening dreams come true so sit back and enjoy the compliments. Remember to tell your sister!

Marcia - it was a great season of alliums here though when the 495 bulbs arrived in the cold weather I had visions of not getting them all planted. The A. Albopilosum Christophii (first photo) was probably the biggest surprise. I simply couldn't envision such large heads but they bloomed beautifully. Schubertii (second and third photos) was pure fun and huge! The plants aren't tall but they really do look like fireworks, as they are sometimes called.
