White onion

Whether or not "cowanii" is a valid name or not is not what this is about.

What this is about is an ostensibly distinct, some might say superior (from a horticultural point of view) form of Allium neapolitanum.

It would be a pity to lose track of this form simply because taxonomists cannot make up their mind about its proper rank or name.
