Title: Allium tricoccum bulbs
Post by: Gerdk on December 29, 2014, 04:56:09 PM

After failing to germinate this species twice and additionally got the information that this species would take more
than five years from sowing to flowering I am now looking for a source for bulbs of this plant -

Is there a UK or Dutch specialist who is listing this ' wild leek ' ? - also I am not reluctant for a swap or to bear expenses
for sending some material from the US.

Hello Gerdk
May be this can help?
Have a look at  www.wildflower.org (http://www.wildflower.org)
They mention three nurseries that grow that allium
