When to start allium offsets

Iv just got a small bag off allium "Purple sensation" offsets and wondered when and how was the best way to get them started off to grow into healthy plants for next year. Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I don't know wether Something needs doing to them this summer. Il attach a photo of the offsets

    If you have a veg patch, line them out around 3 inches apart. Plant deeply around six inches or 15 cm. You can do that any time between now and October. They will come up in Spring. Some may flower, but more likely they will increase the size of the bulb and flower in two years.

  • Thanks for the advice ! Il get that done tomorrow.
