It's an impressive short stem allium widespread around Iran and Transcaucasus. I saw many forms of this species and all ones are exclusively beautiful although the absence of vegetative propagation makes it rare in gardens. Fortunately, the offered form has this important quality. A. akaka is a habitant of exclusively dried spots in the wild and needs many sun and good drainage in garden. First time in my catalogue!

Allium cupuliferum
Tajikistan. Compact umbel with prolonged flowers little by little goes increasing and turn into the umbel of a very specific form recembling a candelabre. Needs sun and dry soil since the flowering time. Propagation with seeds mainly
Ex Allium auctum. Grows in the wild in dark deciduous forests of Crimea. This unusual condition rare for members of the genus puts it in absolutely exceptional place among alliums. Possible it is a single large allium which is well in shaded places of a garden. The flower stem I m high. A very long flowering. Propagation with seeds only. This allum often is confused with Allium nigrum cirillii which grows in Crimea too, but differs well from Allium decipiens.
This rariest allium grown in very limited place near Caspian sea is able grow well in semishade like Crimean Allium decipiens ssp. quercetorum, but it is larger and has beautiful leaves. Among my favourites!
A white form of one among the tallest alliums. Flowering plants can reach up to 1,5 m. The leaves are dark green relatively short. It is very close to Allium altissimum. All cultivated now plants was brought from Iran (Zagros mnt.) by expedition of Brian Mathew in 1963 year.

Allium hollandicum ALBUM
There are two errors in one traditional name. It is an allium of unknown origin selected in Holland with very light lilac purple flowers.
A healthy and well propagated clone selected by me with very light rose flowers. The umbels are beautiful for long time with flowers or with large purple seed buds.
From Tajikistan. Have short and beautiful leaves, like A. karataviense, but the stem is relatively long and can reach 40 cm.

Allium LEADER
It is a result of crossing of two short stem alliums A. alexejanum x A. newskianum. A single seed got from this combination gave my a wonderful plant robust like Allium GIMLI, bul better propagated and having very wide leaves.

Allium pseudoampeloprasum GARNI
I noted that this allium found near Garni (Armenia) and identified by me as A. ampeloprasum nevertheless differs from A. ampeloprasum got from European sources although absence of stem bulbs makes me think so. Now I have to change my point of view, because in 2011 year first time the plants have given multiple small bulbs on the stems. So it's other form of very beautiful allium pseudoampeloprasum unknown in gardens. Larger then the form above and reaches 0,8-1 m. high.
Leaves are the same coloring like below, but they are erect
and most multiple then leaves of ssp. rosenbachianum. Stem 1 m high. Flowers wine red. This alliums was found by me
some kilometers away from the population of A. ros. ssp. rosenbachianum.
Wonderful allium found by me in Tadjikistan and identified as
the true A. rosenbachianum. Has nothing in common with alliums traditionally sold under this name.
It has wide often plicated leaves of unusual salad green coloring. Umbel 19 cm across, rose purple, on stem 70 cm long.
A hybrid plant from free pollination of Allium rosenbachianum ssp. kwakense. It's copy of subspecies, but is larger and able to give annually two bulbs. It makes this plant much more perspective for gardens compairing with Allium rosenbachianum ssp. kwakense which almost has not vegetative reproduction.
Flowers have deep purple pedicels. Leaves bluish. Relatively late in the group of large alliums, so that is's rarely damaged by spring frosts in outdoors.
In the wild it grows in rocky places of N. Caucasus and Crimea. It is notable with its rose anthers. Ideal for alpine gardens! Dividing the plants form beautiful clumps. Flower time is August.
Collected by me in Tajikistan. The most large form of A. stipitatum I have seen and the most large allium of my collection. Again after stock restauration!

Allium (Nectaroscordum) tripedale

ANEMONE
041
Anemone blanda
The plants found in Karacharvo-Cherkesia (N. Caucasus). They are smaller comparing with garden varieties and have very light blue flowers. In wild they grow under trees but sunny position in garden gives a good result too.
The leaf has a specific form with 5 leaflets on long stalks. Upper part of the spathe is purple inside. All A. amurense forms will be better in shade ans semishade with rare lifting or disturbing. Dormant tubers are tolerated to winter frosts and did not died in any strong winter.

Arisaema ciliatum var. liubaense
Native from C. China. Up to 1.0 m high with umbrella like leaf. Is able to pass winter in soil, but the dry keeping in storage is preferable.
I lift tubers every autumn and keep them in a dry storage up to time of planting in Aprile-May. I have information that the tubers are able to pass winter in ground here if the planting were deeper. Flowering in June.

Large plants reach 1 m high. Deep planting gives a possibility to grow them in outdoors.
Plants found by me in central part of The N. Caucasus (Alania). It has snow white spathe bordered narrow purble line and much more beautiful comparing with Arum italicum always grown in European gardens. Needs permanently wet ground and shade or semishade.
Widespread in Transcaucasus. Muscari shaped plants with wide leaves. The sterile flowers disposed on the top of the vertical raceme are violet. The fertile ones are changed color from green to violet and white and brown in the end. They need full sun and good drainage.
