    They are a bulb and are really beautiful. I have a couple of clumps and I love them. They enjoy damp areas, so I find they grow well in my clay soil.  Prince Charles grows them along with alliums in his wildflower meadow at Highgrove!!

    I have a clump in my west facing border - two years old and bulking up nicely - in bloom at the moment amongst tulips and wallflowers and looking pretty.

    I first saw them at Kew Gardens a couple of years ago. Gorgeous.
