All...Yup, it's a member of the Allium family. <br /><br />All I could think about when I saw that flower was all those seeds about ready to pop out and spread.

Maybe they were planted too early here???<br />Lovely plants.deehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00495753587207547865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8963026736416502396.post-39896783590645946382009-09-18T02:37:53.661-04:002009-09-18T02:37:53.661-04:00It's an Allium.
