I've grown Allium scorzonerifolium v xericiense in the open garden for
years--it is somewhat like a more attractive and daintier A. moly, the leaves
being very narrow as compared to that plant. It grows quite well in a bed with
bearded irises that is not watered during the summer.
By the bye, the type plant A. scorzonerifolium v scorzonerifolium with
its head of bulbils and maybe a single floret or two has proved to be a weed in
Betty Lowry's rock garden in Renton,WA. It is only to be recommended to the
most ardent of Alliophils.
