Allium saxatile is a Eurasian species of onion native to European Russia, Belarus, Caucasus, and the Altai Krai region in Siberia. [1] The species was formerly perceived as including additional populations from central and eastern Asia [2] [3] [4] but recent studies have resulting in splitting of the old species into several distinct species.
