If you were a gardener.. or had a mole invasion.. you'd try anything.
Allium moly are one of the cheapest commonly available bulbs on the
market, so no reason not to give it a go.
Does seem a bit daft to buy Sork bulbs @ £13 for 10 when you can buy 100
'mixed Allium' from T & M for £15.
On the allotment for the last couple of years, I grew Nasturtium as an
accompanying plant, to keep the butterflies off the brassicas and it's
worked quite well. They do self-seed, but as you know, the leaves are quite
distinctive, so easy to weed them out.
Rather than go for the mixed Allium, google revealed these from C Plants:-

I may start a couple of dozen in the cold-frame and transfer some to the
garden. Hmm suddenly the mixed are sounding more attractive
