My purple aliums have white "egg like" blobs in the center.

Hi all wondering if anyone out there can help me??

Planted Alliums in the garden ... just finished flowering - they're gorgeous - however one of them appears to have little white blobs around the centre of the flower ... not sure if they're eggs, they're supposed to be there, or if it has an infestation? can anyone help??

Thanks

 

@Inga Please post picture if possible, my first thought is that they may be bulblets that some alliums form in the flower head. Garlic is one and there are others. They will be a few mm in diameter and solid if they are bulblets.

 

Thanks Nigel, I can't work out how to post a picture, i'll check them out and see if they are solid or squishy ... if bulblets do i just leave them be??? thanks for your help

 

There seems to have been a lot of questions about this, this season. They are almost certainly bulblets. Either remove them and bin or if you want more of the Allium, then plant them somewhere out of the way and wait a few years for them to reach flowering size.

 

Thank you!
