Broadleaf garlic
Allium nigrum L.
Broadleaf garlic - Allium nigrum = Allium multibulbosum.
Perennial.
Tall smooth stems in summer are crowned with large hemispherical inflorescences of numerous large white flowers, in the middle of each there is an elegant green "button".
It grows well both in the sun and in light shade on loose garden soils without stagnant water. Looks amazing in small groups in mixed flower beds.
Height: 60-80 cm.
Flowering: VI-VII.
Recommendations for sowing and care.
Most ornamental onions are best sown before winter on a well-prepared breeding bed.
When sowing in February-March, dig containers with crops into the garden and sprinkle them with snow. In the process of gradual thawing of the soil substrate and the passage of meltwater through it, the seed coat and the inhibitory layer are destroyed, which prevents rapid germination.
When a constant temperature is set within + 5 + 12 ° С, friendly shoots appear.
Onions prefer full sun and well-drained soils with lime added. When propagated by seed, they bloom for 2-6 years. Mature plants reproduce by bulbils or division. They look great in small groups in rocky gardens, as well as in mixed borders.
