Hello everyone, I planted these bulbs last autumn with the rest of my spring bulbs. The crocuses, daffodils, grape hyacinths and tulips have all been and gone, but I'm still waiting for these ones to flower. I can't for the life of me remember what they were and there are 4 pots!
(I know, should have labelled them at the time 😳)

Anyone have an idea what they might be?
I hope they do flower soon as we are well into May and they're taking up valuable pot space.

I have these. I think they are alliums.

Apparently my images are under review due to sensitive content. It's literally some bulbs in a pot!

Ah, allium. Yes thank you that's probably right.
Have yours flowered yet mummymummymummummum?

I would advise gluing googly eyes on them. Googly eyes improve everything.

my alliums are just flowering 🤩

QueenClaribel · 06/05/2025 20:22

Ha! Perhaps googly eyes will make them flower quicker Geneticsbunny

Is that what you did PickledMuffin?

Possibly? If you stick them on with mud or jam then it probably won't do any harm.

I have a few types, though admittedly can’t remember which I planted where! I have some little purple ones that are out, I think they are Purple Sensation, and some little ones that look like they’re at the same stage as yours which I think are Eros. I also have some pink and some white ones, but I think they come up/flower later.

Thanks, yours look great. Yes your other ones look like mine do at the moment. I didn't realise they took that long to flower. Never planted them before so reassuring that it's not me doing something wrong!

Thanks @Rictasmorticia

It's been a while since I posted pics on here so hadn't realised that 😊
