Thanks for the try, Patrick.
I see Francelle's picture and remember the bloom in my garden and
really don't see that much difference between AMIABLE and CAST

Could be the soil conditions here or my eyesight!

Enid Lake, MS USA 7/8 (Where the allium HAIR is in bloom. It
really is a bad hair day for it. What a wreck, but I love it! If we could
only put this type of 'hair' into an iris beard).
