Allium fetisowii is a plant species native to Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Xinjiang, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan in Central Asia.[2][3]

Allium fetisowii produces a single round bulb up to 25 mm across. Scape is up to 70 tall, round in cross-section. Leaves are much shorter than the scape, but up to 15 mm wide. Flowers are reddish-purple.[2][4][5]

Allium tschimganicum is native to Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan in Central Asia.[6][7] Flora of China[2] regards this name as synonymous with Allium fetisowii Regel. However, the Plant List[1] accepts A. tschimganicum as a distinct species.
