Disappointment of the year

Post by Muhammad Arif Khan »

I bought 10 bulbs of Allium Glob Master and eagerly waited for the grand blooms. 9 bulbs were planted in the ground and one in a pot.
The tips of the foliage as it emerged were burnt, both of the one in pot and those in ground. One has bloomed and it is DISAPPOINTING.
I was also presented an Allium by Dr. AY Khan in 14 inch pot; it also has similar burning of leaves tips.

Probably you did not provide enough chilling to them?

They remained in Fridg until planted.
Will some other member post pictures of his own Glob masters and give his true opinion.
