Alliums alive!!

     Alliums are my last spring ephemeral to bloom, but what a show they provide!  I probably planted this allium over 25 years ago, so I forgot the species or variety.
     The first photo shows the buds just before opening.  Most photos were taken about 6:30 in the morning in full sunlight.  The fourth photo shows a moss garden in the background.  The fifth photo shows a black wooden hanging fixture.  That was a design of Leonardo da Vinci, which I built three years ago.  The last three photos were taken in very late afternoon.  The light then appeared to be "softer," giving, I thought, a more pleasing appearance.
