Allium Purple Sensation

Hello everyone.

My allium 'Purple Sensation' are beginning to burst their pods to flower - but all of them are only a foot tall.  I had expected them to be much taller.  Do you know if they put on any more height once the pods have opened?

They've been watered regularly as the wind here has been brutal and the ground is always drying out.  I haven't fed them.  Maybe I should have?

    Ours are about 18" tall, we moved them to the position they are in last year and fed them then, and a mid spring feed. you could feed yours now with a liquid feed, image

    Yarrow some of mine are shorter than the others: all the ones the dog squashed are little shorties: could yours have been damaged too?
