Allium flavum ssp. tauricum 'Orangeade' |
'Orangeade' is the dwarf plant in the center, with medium "school bus" orange flowers It is lower growing than most tauricums, only 4" - 5" tall in flower, with a semi-prostrate growth habit. In my seedling trials, I'm searching for compact plants that "clump up" well, and have distinctive or unusually hued flowers.
Growing near 'Orangeade" are 1 and 2 year old seedlings in a variety of interesting colors. On the right is a short row of the cultivar named 'Cinnamon'.
For another good dwarf orange seedling, see the cultivar tentatively named 'Orange Parasol'.
