Allium tuberosm (Chinese Chives) is in the kingdom plantae, family Amartyllidaceae, and genus Allium. It is in subgenus Butomissa (Salisb.) N. Friesen.
An adaptation that nearly all the plants in our project share, is that they are brightly coloured in order to attract pollinators. For flowers to reproduce, they must be pollinated. Therefore, being brightly colored is advantageous.
A unique adaptation of Allium tuberos it blooms later in the season than many other flowering plants. This gives it a greater chance of being pollinated as there is less competition from other types of plants.
