I've found that Allium is one of the easiest genera to grow from seed, usually flowering three years from germination. Keep the seed pots watered until the foliage starts to wither, then keep them in a cool place while they're dormant. If the pots are crowded, you can move them on after the first year, though I usually leave them in 2 years. The little bulbs are easy to identify, as they're almost always light-colored. Pot them on until they're big enough not to get lost in the garden, usually after the second year. Most species do best in well-drained soil, such as on a rock garden, and most are native to sunny places. A few can become pests in the garden by self-sowing or increasing with bulbs on stolons; an example is A. triquetrum.
