Sea Onion Bud


Sea Onion Bud (Ornithogalum longibracteatum)

Only 12cm long right now, the bottom buds are starting to form, soon the little flowers will begin and go for a month or two. :-)

Thanks Hywel, not real showy but still lovely to watch. This flowers more like wild sea squil. I see all those lovely ornithogalum links to the side, mine is much more plain.....lol

Is this the one that was sadly decapitated GT?

This is the one. I have it fastened to a support already. Should just make a lovely summer of flower just in reach.
