1. Iris species nova - Starweaver's Gems from Earth and Sky

27. Allium nevskianum
Very beautiful species with a large umbel of reddish-purple flowers on a short stem
between two wide bluish green leaves, somewhat resembling A. karataviense, but
much more spectacular and better grower here outside. Collected on stone slip near
Chinoro, Varsob gorge, Tajikistan (RK-8139). 7.00
28. Allium oreophilum ‘AGALIK’S GIANT’
This very beautiful, early flowering form has large dense umbel of magnolia-purple
flowers on 40 cm stem, useful even for cut flowers. From Agalik, Seravschan mnt.
range. Identical with some offered under name ‘Torch’. 5.00
29. Allium oreophilum ‘KUSAVLI CURL’
One of the most beautiful forms of this species, in which very dwarf habit is in combination
with unusually twisted leaves. Marvellous show-winner in pots and beautiful
for rockery, here easy in open garden as well.

30. Allium oreophilum ‘SULEV’S DWARF’
It is the best of A. oreophilum varieties for growing in pots as is exceptionally dwarf,
bearing darkest reddish purple dense umbel of large flowers on only 5 cm long stem,
between 2 narrow leaves. Excellent selection made by my Estonian friend Sulev
Savisaar.

31. Allium orientale
Very widespread and variable allium. This form was collected in Turkey, N of Akseki
and it has large white flowers composed in almost spherical dense umbel. Ovary in my
plants is dark green. 8.00
32. Allium protensum
Close relative to well-known A. schubertii, differs in more compact habit and is fully
hardy in comparison with its ally. Height 30 - 40 cm. From S slopes of Sarimar mnt.
(W end of SW Ghisar), South Uzbekistan. 10.00
33. Allium “pseudowinklerianum”
Flowers large, narrowly cup-shaped, purplish violet on 40 - 50 cm stem. Similar to
A. cupuliferum, but umbel is more compact, different shape of leaves. Fergana mnt.
range. By R. Fritsch it really is neither A. winklerianum nor pseudowinklerianum. Most
likely new species but in any case - very nice.

34. Allium robustum

long lasting. From Tar-Bagatai mnt. range, Kazakhstan. 7.00
35. Allium sarawschanicum
Large airy umbels of violet flowers on 80 cm stem. The centre of flower umbel (pedicels)

36. Allium scabriflorum
One of the gems of my collection which up to identifying I nicknamed “Little Bluehead
Beauty”. Late summer flowering allium with small, dense light sky-blue flowerheads
on 40-50 cm tall stems. One of the last flowering species in my collection. I
know no one similar to it. 15.00
37. Allium schoenoprasoides
By flower head it resembles A. schoenoprasum (for that its name) but stem is taller,
flowers very light bluish, almost white. Makes beautiful bright green bulbs. From very
high altitudes in Kugart, tolerates summer moisture. 12.00
38. Allium sivasicum
Beautiful dwarf allium (only 15 cm tall) with umbrel-like inflorescence as in A. flavum NEW
but composed from mauvish-purple overlaid with a bloom flowers on pedicels of
different length (LST-156).
