Decorative bow (alium or allium) - decoration for any garden. Thanks to this unsurpassed plant, you can make a garden of continuous flowering.
And to do this is very simple: it is enough to plant varieties in a flowerbed with different-time flowering. And when the inflorescences begin to bloom, you should not despair, because the dry color heads of decorative onions look very impressive.
Plant appearance
Today, more than 600 types of decorative onions are known. Varieties differ from each other 
other shape and size of inflorescences, color, different blooms, as well as the structure of leaves and flowers.
Alium comes from the onion family. Because of this relationship, decorative onions have a garlic smell and a burning taste. This is caused by the presence of essential oils.
Ornamental onions are characterized by linear leaves that grow from the root.
This bow has become decorative due to its delicate inflorescences, which consist of small pretty flowers.

This plant multiplies both seeds and vegetatively (bulbs). Each method has its positive and negative sides.
Consider seed multiplication. They are best sown in spring or autumn. For diving seedlings choose beds with good lighting. And here it is worth paying attention to two main points. Seeds of many varieties of onions will grow only when the winter is sowing, because they need to go through the whole complex of the fall-winter-spring seasons.
Sometimes even long-term storage of seeds in the refrigerator can not replace such a need. And the second important point - when sowing seeds, some types of onion will bloom only for 3-8 years, when the bulb reaches the desired size.
Vegetative reproduction occurs when dividing the bulb. As a result of the division, small onion-babies appear that develop near the mother bulb. Education of children also depends on the type of decorative onions. In some plant species, small onions form on the inflorescences. They can also be used for breeding.
Alium landing
If you decide to sow the seeds, then choose only advanced seed boxes, from underdeveloped you will get a pale diseased plant.
If you want to plant baby bulbs, then they need to be buried at a depth of two diameters of the bulb itself. We must also remember that between plants there should be a distance of not less than 30 cm. By the way, it’s not worth interfering with the growing season, the green of Aliuma will decide when it is better for it to die.

For decorative onions it is best to choose a sun bed with loose fertile soils. With better light, the intensity of the color of flowers and leaves will increase.
Before planting the onions, the soil is fertilized with rotted compost and mineral fertilizer with trace elements.
Decorative onions very poorly tolerate the lack of potassium in the soil. To remedy the situation, wood ash can be added to the soil.
Care for decorative onions
Alium quite unpretentious plant. It is able to survive a small drought and light frost. One of the needs of onions is moisture. But here we must be careful: if the soil is not loose enough and the water stagnates, then the bulbs may rot.
If the second half of the summer will be damp and cool, then the likelihood of disease and rotting increases. Therefore, experienced gardeners advise to dig up the bulbs after flowering, dry and store in a dry place until the autumn (this is only for bulbous plants).
Somewhere in the third decade of September it is necessary to land them again. The growth of onion roots will continue after planting, until the temperature drops to 2-3 degrees.
Some varieties of this plant do not care when they are planted in the fall or spring, but the onion must winter in a cool, dry place. But onion-rhizome varieties of onions are reluctant to tolerate transplantation, so they are transplanted for 3-5 years only once.
Every spring you need to deeply loosen the area, clean it from plant residues. During the growing season, care should be as for any plant: weeding, loosening and mulching the soil. It is necessary to feed up two times - after the leaves grow back (in spring) and during budding (at the end of summer).
