Title: Crimean Allium from mntns "anzur-group"
Post by: Oakwood on June 06, 2008, 01:53:48 PM
I found it only in 1 habitat, it smells very pleasantly like nightly violets (Matthiola bicornis),
50-60 cm height, has always 3 leaves, flowering time - end of May-beginning of June.
Any idea? I can't find any information on this species in different Floras of Ukraine.....

Many thanks!
