Van Zyverden 12ct Bulbs Allium Purple Sensation

Product Description

Alliums are in the same family as garlic, onions, chives, and shallots. This makes gardeners wonder if they should include them in their ornamental gardening plans, as it conjures up images of supermarket produce. But because good garden designs are often made up of different shapes, Alliums rounded blooms make for high drama and interest in the garden. The Allium group gets more popular annually, from over 300 species to choose. They amaze everyone, and few plants create this kind of wow in the garden. Allium Purple sensation produces silver green, basal leaves which die by flowering time. The bloom carries numerous star-shaped, purplish pink flowers in a dense, spherical umbel. Excellent nectar source for pollinators. Plant about 9 bulbs per square feet.
