Allium circinatum

Kıvırcık soğan

Subsp evae

The herbarium material available for study is scanty, but it includes a length of coiled, hairy linear leaf, and is accompanied by a coloured photograph pasted to the sheet. Enough material is available to conclude that the identification of Allium circinnatum is correct and to make some observations about the plant. The two valves of the spathe vary greatly from one plant to another. The umbel consists of 4-5 flowers on pedicels 10-15 mm long. The perianth segments are uniformly pink, 6-7 mm long, ovate-lanceolate with a saccate base, and spread to form an open cup-shaped flower. The anthers are yellow.
