Fraid not Nut...its a good old common allium although I can't remember the variety. It gets very leafy early spring and yellow star shaped flowers
The bulbs smell of onion and its very vigorous!
Sorry for late reply...I worked a very early shift today and just didn't have the energy to think much so I slapped these up instead!
Post dinner, I'm a little more compos mentis so, yes, they are very arty.
I also cheated, since these are from previous years...my garden is mostly still catching up and as stated, I didn't have the energy to take photos which mostly means getting down on all fours and into peculiar angles!
I paint in oils, so these are my stock of flower forms and light that I use in my paintings Imagine large versions of these hanging on your walls and there you go...not just a pretty face.
Only just started looking at the pix - what a treat. Everyone has some lovely plants, and some really clever photographic skills. Enjoyed it so much I am going back to look at them all over again

I'd rather paint a picture of them
I don't think the wintersong pic is an allium for some reason, but I may be wrong
The penultimate is Nectaroscordum siculum, used to be called Allium siculum
In the sticks near Peterborough
Wow day one and already some brilliant pics. Wintersong they are brilliant pics.
I took a pic of my first rose, the smell is that typical old fashioned rose smell

Oh go on then, one more just because we can...
WinterS, would love some pics of your flower paintings. My icon to the left is a detail from one of mine.
Nut, I think that what I have is Nectaroscordum Siculum, I guess it must be an allium?
I was probaly an allium when you got it artjak and changed to the more dfifficult to spell word later on
In the sticks near Peterborough
Yes would love to see some pics of your paintings Wintersong.
Artjak are you sure that isn't some nasty condition?
Bev, yes it does sound rather itchy
