Sensational symmetry and colour come together on the magnificent Allium ‘Purple Sensation’. Available as a pack of bulbs, they will grow into dazzling spheres made up of tiny starry flowers.
The sweetly scented blooms stand on tall and elegant stems that reach up to 90cm high, adding structure and interest to garden displays. They also look wonderful planted in a cluster in a large container where you can enjoy the flowers up close on a patio. Alternatively, admire the beautiful structural flowers in cut flower displays around the home. The structural blooms have a long vase life and can be dried to enjoy its beautiful silhouette for much longer.
In addition to the beautiful floral display, these alliums have the added benefit of being a great way to attract wildlife into your garden, and they are loved by a range of bees, butterflies and other pollinators.
