Allium trifoliatum

Allium trifoliatum Cirillo is from Italy, North into France with some other populations reportedly scattered around the Mediterranean region. The leaves appear in Autumn. Leaves are wide, keeled, and apparently have hairy edges. The flowers are white, often aging to pink in a small umbel. Each petal has a pinkish or purplish stripe. The selections 'Eos', 'Cameleon', and 'Chameleon' are all the same plant, a fine form selected by Wim de Goede.

Shlomit Heymann photographed these in the Carmel mountains, Israel, in late March 2011, the first winter after a fire. The Wild Flowers of Israel website lists bloom months as March and April.
