I grew Purple Sensation which has slowly disappeared after a few seasons

I also had Giant Allium two seasons and they were gone


I also wasted a big sum of money on Silver Spring. It didnt appear again after one season. I believe my soil was too moist in the area where I put them

I tried Forlock because it was so unusual. I dug them after the first year because they were listed as 34 inches but mine wrer about 50
