Allium gone to seed

i have been woundering that tooo. i'm watching my flowers turning to seed. i'm going to give it a go this year....

I'll try it too, Sandra. Will do a bit of research but probably end up asking here :o)

great photo

i've done agapanthus from seed..it took years to flower but i have a lot of plants now...

That's a beautiful close-up Peter.

Wow, how did yours turn out such a nice chocolate colour? :-)

you have chocolate on the brain David....

Thanks folks :o)
I have now harvested the seed from this and it's drying in the kitchen.

No wonder, Sandra. :-)

Also, am now drying off my giant Allium "Beauregard" heads and stems in a pot in the lounge.

nice shot peter, looks good even in seed

Thanks Sanbaz :o)

I cut some of my Allium seedheads off and let them blow around the borders like tumbleweed seeding where they like. I have a sandy soil where they seem to seed quite successfuly and if any come up where I don't want them, they are easy to transplant. :~)

Thanks Muddy, that sounds a lot easier than the instructions in my RHS book - I suppose it has worked for long enough without our help :o)
