Allium serra is a California species of wild onion known by several common names, including jeweled onion, pom-pon onion, and serrated onion.[2][3][4]
It favors hard soils with rock and clay, including serpentine soil.[5] It is found in the Coast Ranges of central and northern California, from Merced County to Humboldt County.[6]
Allium serra plant produces a small herringbone-patterned bulb an average of one centimeter in diameter. It has a long stem on which it bears a tightly bunched umbel of flowers. The attractive bright pink flowers are thimble or bell-shaped, often iridescent when new and becoming papery as they dry.[5][7]
