  • The Giants Are Coming…The Giants Are Coming…

    Beautiful beds of Allium giganteum or Giant Allium, that is. This morning in the Public Garden, Penny noticed the buds on these members of the onion family beginning to open.

    In the Boston Public Garden and along the Greenway, we watched people stop to photograph the Giant Allium plants that have been blooming during the past couple of weeks. For a short time each year, these blooms add a pop of color and fun to the landscape.
