I like to see your sculptures. What do you make them from ?

If you like to grow globe artichoke, noseypotter, try growing Cardoon.. they are cousins... cardoon is dead easy from seed... they will grow to about five feet tall, huge fountain of silver-gray toothed leaves..really architectural.(like an acanthus leaf but better).. almost sculptural...right down your street!
They like really good garden soil...nice loamy stuff and they will become HUGE. The pic is an allium (onion) so as you'd expect they are bulbs... I have a perennial type that grows to all of 10 inches tall, it's reclusive not very showy...can buy the bulbs reasonably...so you can shop a catalogue or go online...to see which ones you like best...Cheers!

On question - plant type

Leaves look a bit like Crocosmia??? A possibility???

On question - plant type

 

Aren't you lucky to have such a lovely Allium! I only have success with one type - 'Purple Sensation', I have tried the bigger ones with NO luck.

On question - plant type

 

Definitely an allium

Alium?

On question - plant type

 

This looks like an Alium, If it is it should have a few strap shaped leaves at its base, probably going slightly yellow by now.
They are bulbs, they dont cost too much in the garden centre.
They also look good once the colour has gone and you are left with just the seed head.

On question - plant type

 

Think its an allium but don't know the variety.Will probably set seed after the flowers fade.
Nice to meet you, Mike
