Thanks very much Albags they are the ones.

I should have known cupid as now you have said that they are a larger version of my Chives which are also in flower at the moment.

Thanks to everyone

You cant get the scale from the photo but they are around a metre tall so definately not chives I think you are correct Rowan - They were very impressive

[welshlibranr]

Oh right, definately Alliums then!..........they are lovely!................enjoy!............

just googled, don't know how accurate the information but chives only grow up to
a foot high, alliums grow up to four feet tall.
