Notes: selected by Mark McDonough who wrote the following:

"This plant is a selection from open pollinated seed of the autumn-blooming "Circle Onion"; A. senescens ssp. glaucum. The subspecies is known for it's low spiralling clumps of gray, strap-like leaves and pleasant pink flowers in September. This hybrid grows much taller and flowers in August; most likely a back-cross with regular tall forms of A. senescens.

This excellent hybrid is special on several accounts.  The hemispherical flower heads are much larger than ssp. glaucum, appearing ample and delicately open in disposition. The gray leaves swirl and twist just like glaucum, except growing much taller.  The plants are floriferous on account of producing 2-3 stems stems per bulb."
