Hope I spelled that correctly.
Question,
Do they change from bright pink to a lovely pale pink as the flowers age. Or have I got some colour variant coming into flower?
Cheers!

Caloscordum neriniflorum (syn.Allium neriniflorum) does indeed fade colour from its flowers as they age - so I think you can be confident in your plant !

Beginning to wonder if I DO have two different Alliums in the same clump.
[attachimg=1]
Standard Allium
[attachimg=2]
Different one.
What do you think?

Ooh, errr um.... well yes those do seem like two different types!

Not many alpines sirvive in the hot and soggy Kentucky summers but Caloscordum neriniflorum seems to have survived in a pile of sand and limestone
