Bees & Butterflies with Alliums

Ishikura scallions blooming. The scallions overwintered and grew thick, similar to leeks, but the green portion of the plant has a good onion flavor.
Bees and butterflies are always visiting these flowers.
I'll save the seed heads and disperse them with the autumn rains.
These seeds came from Turtle Tree Biodynamic seeds. They are a non-profit seed company based in NY.
