216/366: Bursting into Bloom
One of the coolest floral sights is witnessing an allium (onion species) grow and then finally bloom. Every day the bud casing grows larger and you will begin recognize the shape of florets forming in their pointy-hat house. They will continue to grow ever-larger and strain against the sheath-like covering, stretching it until you can see the florets clearly. Eventually the bud cover cannot withstand the pressure any longer and it splits open, the still-forming florets bursting out into the air! What a show to watch as the florets continue growing until they form a glorious round ball! This was another gem I photographed on the Garden tour in Ashland a few years ago.
