Allium parciflorum is a plant species known only from the islands of Corsica and Sardinia in the Mediterranean.[2][3] It is common at all elevations on those two islands but unknown elsewhere.[4]
Allium parciflorum has egg-shaped bulbs. Scape is up to 25 cm tall, round in cross-section. Leaves are thin and tubular, about the same length as the scape but withering before flowering time. Umbels have very few bell-shaped flowers. Tepals are white to pale lavender with prominent dark purple midveins.[5][6][7][8]
Allium parciflorum is closely related to Allium lojaconoi, endemictoMalta.[9]
