I am absolutely Alliums lovers , always looking forward my Alliums flowers every year during spring time .

[@tim7589]

What a surprise! I've never heard of these triangular stemmed varieties before, and they look superb! Particularly interested in senescens glaucum & Millennium!

[@toosense]

Very educational, thank you!

[@herenow2895]

They are lovely and round. Thank you for sharing these beauties with us.

[@ruthcroft1766]

Thank you Rosy, that was very interesting.

[@marysimonetti5243]

Thank you for the education.

[@sharondower]

fabulous, thank you. Always bought the bulbs which don't do well in my soil, so I found this so useful

[@janeelliott6772]

Heading straight to your website now.

[@arli4406]

Thank you! I just got 25 bulbs, and had no idea how to care for them.

[@mickydub3]

Very informative Rosy . Many Thanks .

[@jagdishbahia9162]

Thank you so much for very informative video❤️ I have a one Questions how to look after this plant in the pots during winter month? 🇬🇧

[@anneas8532]

Thank you so much Rosie for this information on the Alliums. I absolutely love them, I will look out for the three you have have demonstrated. I try to grow everything for the butterflies and bees, and to watch them gorging on the alliums is a delight. Please could you tell us when is the time of year we can obtain and plant them.

[@beckyscheller9358]

Have the milliner and love it.

[@gailpengelly8581]

Absolutely brilliant video, thank you. Do any of these varieties come in blue or white please? X

[@Rougebasque]

lovely alliums

[@nicoles5852]

I thought alliums came out in late spring in the UK? Fantastic if these are summer flowering ones.

[@suepercy8390]

Great video thanks. information I really wanted

[@hilarymathison4289]

These are fascinating, no yellowed leaves like the types that grow each year from a bulb. So these leaves are evergreen? I found a pretty white flowered plant in my garden that someone identified as a 3 cornered leek. Same triangular stem, but apparently invasive. But must be same family? Thank you for a really interesting video…didn’t realise perennial alliums existed!

[@spraydecqualitydecorators]

Are you related to Charlie Dimmock in any way? The resemblance is striking and you both love gardening!

[@staceyismine]

Planted mine last year and still not came up...gutted

[@millieatr]

When you divide a section of the plant do you need to dig the WHOLE plant up to do that?

[@Early100]

When will these be available from your website please, I’m especially interested in the “millennium” variety.

[@grahamthomas411]

Me to they are on her website now 👍

[@paigeschultz6951]

Thank you- so they only bloom once in spring? Do the flower heads remain a long time? Should they be dead headed?

[@convinth]

It doesn't look as if the leaves deteriorate when the flower opens, as they usually do on the traditional alliums.

[@an5210]

I have mine in a pot, what shall I do with it in winter> I would prefer to keep it in a pop but its -25F here at times. normal is 10F for winter.

[@FLlife]

Any particular variety that doesn’t need any cold period and could handle hot humid & wet summers? Florida 9b sub tropical. We have Society Garlic which is about the closest I’ve found that has a similar growth and bloom structure. I’ve tried all the different bulbs without success.

[@herenow2895]

Would these last long in the vase ? I guess they are not cut and come again ?

[@judywright5424]

Hey I’m want to fine the allium do know where I can buy them

[@gloriagene0]

When do they bloom?

[@oliviabalaban]

Would Allium Millenium grow in a north facing garden?

[@garytroman5657]

Can you grow from their seeds?

[@garytroman5657]

@@RosyHardyGardening I was thinking in particular 'Christophii'....

[@TheUniverseWorksForUsBeings]

I have the second shorter one...are the ornamentals edible? That may be a dumb question...they smell just like chives when you pick them

[@TheEnderknight]

Yes, all alliums are edible theoretically. Though store bought ornamental alliums probably have insecticide on them, so wait a year for new foliage to grow and munch on the leaves they will vary in flavor between onion flavor and garlic flavor.
