Belongs within: Petrosaviidae.
The Alliaceae are a group of bulbous herbs with flowers typically borne in terminal umbels. Members of the type genus Allium are odoriferous and found mainly in temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere, though a number of species have become widespread as invasive weeds. Several species, such as the onion Allium cepa and garlic Allium sativum, are cultivated for food.
