The Impatient Gardener: A new favorite

A new favorite

I have a new must-have for my garden. This is the first year I've grown Allium 'Ivory Queen'. She's just poking up now so I've not had the opportunity to see the flower yet, but I'm already so enamored with it that the flower almost doesn't matter. Thick, deep blue leaves are emerging. They look a bit hostalike but more blue than even the bluest hosta. I'm so happy I put three of them front and center off the patio.

Much more attractive than the Allium 'Red Sensation' leaves I am looking at out my window. Ugh. Can't wait to see the flower on your variety!
