Allium burjaticum
Safety & Hazards
Although no individual reports regarding this species have been seen, there have been cases of poisoning caused by the consumption, in large quantities and by some mammals, of certain members of this genus. Dogs seem to be particularly susceptible[1].
Cultivation Details
Allium burjaticum Requires a sunny position in a well-drained light to medium soil[2]. Established plants are drought tolerant[2].
Propagation
Seed - sow spring in a cold frame. Prick out the seedlings into individual pots when they are large enough to handle - if you want to produce clumps more quickly then put three plants in each pot. Grow them on in the greenhouse for at least their first winter and plant them out into their permanent positions in spring once they are growing vigorously and are large enough. Division of the clump. Individual bulbs or larger clumps can be separated from the main clump - individual bulbs can be planted directly into their permanent position, but are probably best grown in pots or a nursery bed until established. Larger divisions can be planted direct into their permanent position.
