Broad-leaved onion Allium nigrum Also known as: Black garlic, Allium multibulbosum Rating: 5.0 ( 3 votes) This description is for Broad-leaved onion (Allium nigrum): Black garlic is hardy and great for beginners, but definitely has no rum in it. Allium nigrum is a great allium for beginners as it is renowned for being very hardy. It grows in clumps, with sturdy stems so it won't be too affected by the wind but it will prefer a sheltered position in the garden. The flower heads grow at the top of these stems in a half-sphere shaped cluster of white star shaped flowers. It will grow to around 70cm in height. It likes a sunny spot but it will grow fine in partial shade. If you're planting this in clay soil then add a little grit to the soil as it will love a well-drained soil.

Classical and Hebrew Sages on Cultivated Biennial Plants Part II
Classical and Hebrew Sages on Cultivated Biennial Plants Part II Moshe Negbi, Eliezer Ε. Goldschmidt and Nikolaj Serikoff Liliaceae Allium Theophrastus, with his profound botanical understanding, grouped together the members of the genus Allium known to him: onion (kromnon, A. cepa), leek (prason, A. porrum), garlic (skordon, A. sativum), long onion (gethnon, A. cepa var.1), horn onion (geteion, A. cepa var.) and shallot (kromnon to skhiston, A. ascalonicum). Moreover, in morphologi cal and developmental aspects he compared the Allium species to other monocotyledon- ous geophytes.2 Following Theophrastus we deal with them together. On seed, sowing, germination and vegetative reproduction I: Seed does not keep well ... among the more vigorous ones are ... leek ... among the less vigorous are long onion — which will not keep ... (HP 7.5.5). The second period [of sowing] begins after the winter solstice in the month of Gamelion (January), in which they scatter or plant the seed of leeks, celery, long onion and orach ... Leek and long onion do not take the same time [to germinate], but the former 19 to 20 days, the latter 10 to 12 (HP 7Ἰ.2-3). Another thing that makes a difference as to the ra pidity with which the seeds germinate is their age; for some herbs come up quicker from fresh seed, as leek, long onion ... (HP 7.1.6). All these herbs are propagated from seed, and some also by ... a piece of root... By root [bulb!] are planted garlic, onion ... and in general such bulbous plants (HP 7.2Ἰ).3 On their leaves: ... in most potherbs [leaves] grow directly from the root, as in onion, garlic, chicory, and also in asphodel, squill and purse-tassels ..

Garlic, an Approach to Healthy Life
Sharma N et al / IJRAP 2010, 1 (2) 358-366 Review Article Available online through www.ijrap.net NATURAL HEALING AGENT: GARLIC, AN APPROACH TO HEALTHY LIFE Nagori B.P., Solanki Renu, Sharma Neha* Lachoo Memorial College of Science and Technology, Pharmacy Wing, Jodhpur, India Received: 03-11-2010; Revised: 28-11-2010; Accepted: 03-12-2010 ABSTRACT We have grown up in the era of so-called wonder drugs. Garlic is one such drug which is grown globally. China is by far the largest producer of garlic, with approximately 10.5 million tonnes (23 billion pounds) annually, accounting for over 77% of world output. This leaves 16% of global garlic production in countries that each produces less than 2% of global output. The purpose of this study is to highlight new applications of cultivated as well as wild garlic in medicine. Areas of beneficial activity include anti- AIDS, anti-cancer and anti-cardiovascular disease and anti-infectious properties, amongst others. Garlic is uniquely the richest dietary source of many otherwise rare healthful sulphur compounds, plus organic selenium and germanium besides other essential nutrients and active health-promoting phytochemicals. Various forms of garlic are available, the most effective being fresh, powdered, distilled and especially aged garlic, which later lacks the irritant effect of fresh garlic, yet possesses equal or greater bio-active range and potency. Since many years cultivated garlic (Allium sativum) has served the medicinal purpose. As demand of garlic is continuously increasing due to its valuable features, other garlic species are screened for potential benefits of cultivated garlic with less side effects.

Comparative Susceptibility of Onion Varieties and of Species of Allium to Urocystis Cepulae1
COMPARATIVE SUSCEPTIBILITY OF ONION VARIETIES AND OF SPECIES OF ALLIUM TO UROCYSTIS CEPULAE1 By P. J. ANDERSON Formerly Research Professor of Botany, Massachusetts Agricultural Experiment Station INTRODUCTION Most pathogenic fungi show a distinct variation in their ability to infect different varieties of their host plant. Such a difference in varietal susceptibility is usually the starting point for the breeding or selection of resistant varieties, which is the most effectual method for the control of plant diseases. With respect to onion smut, how- ever, it has never been shown that there is any difference in the sus- ceptibility of the numerous varieties under cultivation; in fact, no very comprehensive variety tests with this objective in view have been conducted. Walker and Jones {12y tested a few varieties, and Whitehead (13, p. 44-9) in England tested 21 varieties of onions and 11 varieties of leeks (Allium porrum), but none showed resistance. Nevertheless, since there were numerous other varieties which had not been tested, so far as was known to the writer, it appeared worth while to collect seed of as many varieties as could be obtained and test them comparatively in the hope that some of them might show a degree of resistance which should warrant crossing and selection work. The genus Allium, to which the cultivated onion belongs, is a large genus of some 250 species which are widely distributed over the earth. Urocystis cepulae was first reported on Allium cepa (4, 8) in 1857, in eastern Massachusetts. As early as 1881 (7) it was also reported on A. porrum (leek), in France.

UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT 0 INVENTORY No. 84 Washington, D. C. T Issued November, 1927 PUNT MATERIAL INTRODUCED BY THE OFFICE OF FOREIGN PLANT INTRODUCTION, BUREAU OF PLANT INDUSTRY, DURING THE PERIOD FROM JULY 1 TO SEPTEMBER 30, 1925 (NOS. 64429 TO 65047) CONTENTS Page Introductory statement 1 Inventory ; 3 Index of common and scientific names ,— 33 INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT The Province of Manchuria, northeastern China, with an area of about 400,000 square miles, is largely an agricultural region. The winters are gen- erally long and cold, with a minimum temperature sometimes as low as —40° F., while the summers are short and hot. Certain parts of the northwestern United States are subject to similar climatic conditions, and it is therefore of special interest that an agricultural explorer of this bureau, P. H. Dorsett, spent the greater part of the period covered by this inventory in Manchuria, with the result that large quantities of propagating material were collected. This material included such fruits as cherries, apricots, raspberries, and currents; also a number of native grasses and many miscellaneous vegetables and woody plants. At the same time that Mr. Dorsett w^as in Manchuria, Doctor Fairchild was working along the northern coast of Africa and other parts of the Mediter- ranean countries, one of the oldest agricultural regions of the world. Among the most interesting plants sent in by Doctor Fairchild were those included in such leguminous genera as Cytisus, Genista, Hedysarum, Lotus, Medicago, Scorpiurus, and Vicia. Past experience has shown that plants from the Medi- terranean region generally will thrive in the warmer sections of the Pacific States and parts of the Southwest, and many of the plants collected by Doctor Fairchild are promising, not only as forage but also as ornamentals.

The Herbarium – a Data Source for Allium Genus Species
Research Journal of Agricultural Science, 50 ( 1), 2017 THE HERBARIUM – A DATA SOURCE FOR ALLIUM GENUS SPECIES V. SCĂRLĂTESCU1, Diana VASILE2, I. VOICULESCU3 1- INCDS ~Marin Drăcea~Mihăești, [email protected] 2- INCDS ~Marin Drăcea- Brașov, [email protected] , corresponding author 3- INCDS ~Marin Drăcea-București, [email protected] Abstract . Allium is an extremely diversified genus that encompasses more than 750 species almost exclusively distributed in the North hemisphere (Mediterranean Europe, Asia, North America, South America and sub-Saharan Africa). The Allium genus includes some species that are economically valuable and cultivated worldwide, such as the common onion, garlic, scallion or chive. Other species have important medicinal properties or are used in horticulture. The purpose of this paper is to inventory the Allium genus species present in the Al. Beldie Herbarium from INCDS ”Marin Drăcea” Bucharest and describe some of them. The Herbarium host 111 plates that contain 56 Allium genus species. Most plates belong to Allium schoenoprasum L, Allium oleraceum L. and Allium ursinum L. and the most Allium genus species were gathered in 1932 and 1942. A large number of plates are signed by Al. Beldie, while others belong to S. Pașcovski, Al. Borza, C. C.Georgescu and were gathered from Italy (Naples, Sicily), Bulgaria, Alps or Pyrenees and from Romania from Bucegi Mountains (most of them), Băile Herculane, Iași, Tulcea. The herbarium offers a unique perspective for the Allium genus species in regard with their location-temporal dynamic. The information can be used as a starting point for comparing distribution changes from the past and the future.

The flowers are excellent for cutting. Its fragrant sword-like leaves remain green in color throughout the season. The fruit is not ornamentally significant. Landscape Attributes Black Garlic Ornamental Onion is an open herbaceous perennial with tall flower stalks held atop a low mound of foliage. Its relatively coarse texture can be used to stand it apart from other garden plants with finer foliage. This is a relatively low maintenance plant, and should only be pruned after flowering to avoid removing any of the current season's flowers. It is a good choice for attracting butterflies to your yard, but is not particularly attractive to deer who tend to leave it alone in favor of tastier treats. It has no significant negative characteristics. Black Garlic Ornamental Onion is recommended for the following landscape applications; - Vertical Accent - Mass Planting - General Garden Use Planting & Growing Black Garlic Ornamental Onion will grow to be about 12 inches tall at maturity extending to 4 feet tall with the flowers, with a spread of 12 inches.
