NECTAROSCORDUM SICULUM

NECTAROSCORDUM SICULUM
Taken in my garden and just beginning to come into flower. Also known as Sicilian honey garlic and Mediterranean bells. I think they're beautiful at this stage, and even more beautiful when they go to seed. I'll be posting more of these!

Thanks Rosa............it's looking good at the moment and will be blooming soon (I hope). I'm really waiting it them to go to seed though as they're very photogenic then.

"In Erwartung der Blüte" könnte der Titel lauten. Interessant finde ich auch die langen Hälse. Die wirken fast tierisch.
Eine sehr schöne Nahaufnahme, Keith!

Thats a great piece of photography Keith, that macro has let you separate the flower buds from the rest perfectly.
It baffles me though why did the Romans dream up these long names for flora.
