Allium vasilevskajae
Vasilevskaya's onion is a rare bulbous wild onion known only from a few old collections in Armenia's Syunik Province. Little is documented about its cultivation, so treat it as a species for botanical interest rather than a reliably grown garden plant.
Allium vasilevskajae, or Vasilevskaya's onion, is a species of onion that is endemic to Syunik Province in Armenia. It was found in stony places and on screes in the upper montane zone, from elevations of 2,200–2,300 m. It is only known from two collections made half a century ago.
