Allium Paniculatum Subsp. Fussii

Allium paniculatum subsp. fussii is a lesser-known but striking member of the onion family. Native to the mountainous regions of central Asia, this plant thrives in cool, dry climates with well-drained soil. Its most notable feature is its dense, spherical inflorescence composed of numerous small, white or pale purple flowers. The subspecies is often mistaken for other Allium species due to its similar appearance. Despite its beauty, it remains a rare and underappreciated plant in botanical collections.
