Title: Allium identification
Post by: Rick R. on September 17, 2013, 02:03:18 AM

From NARGS seed ex (although from a European donor), I received these as Allium zebdanense.  Seedlings are two and three years old now and some have bloomed.  Until this year, they went dormant each summer and returned the following spring.  But this year, an exceptionally cool and rainy season, both the ones in the ground and the ones in pots went dormant on "schedule", but two weeks ago resprouted.  Can anyone suggest the real identity of these plants?

The plant:
