Allium saxatile

Allium saxatile is a Eurasian species of onion native to European Russia, Belarus, Caucasus, and the Altai Krai region in Siberia.[1] The species was formerly perceived as including additional populations from central and eastern Asia[2][3][4] but recent studies have resulting in splitting of the old species into several distinct species.[5]
