Quick Overview

Allium Purple Sensation - 15 bulbs.

Product Description

Allium hollandicum 'Purple Sensation' is the best all round garden and flower arranging allium. It starts to flower after the tulips in mid-May. I’ll pick flowers and then beautiful green bead-like seed heads until the end of July and I use them to decorate the tree at Christmas. No May - June garden is complete without a good drift of 'Purple Sensation'.

They now gently self-sow in my garden adding to their value. (Or buy this in the Fantastic Allium Collection)
