Allium christophii (often wrongly called Allium christophii) is an ornamental leek that originally comes from Iran and its Eastern neighbor countries. The first plants at the site in a pine forest close to a settlement on the sandy soil of an inland dune will most probably have originated from garden ejection. But these have multiplied vigorously, so that in between about estimated 200 plants are blooming there. | ||
