@jmorth You are fairly close to me in zones so I have a question I hope you can answer for me. I bought 3 pkgs. of Allium 'Aflatunense', 'Siculum', and 'Karataviense". I have not gotten them in the ground yet. Do you think it is still okay to plant them in the ground? Will they survive the winter? Should I cover them with straw or bags of mulch to help from frost? The pkg. says planting time is Sept-Dec. I was going to plant them today but it is just too windy. All pkgs. say planting depth is 4" and spacing is 6". Do you find this to be right? I do have a few Allium growing that I planted from bulbs a few years ago but I have also planted some bulbs that never came up and some where only a few came up or none at all. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Any hints on planting Allium seeds??
