Description

I first planted A. unifolium at Perch Hill 22 years ago and up it comes again every spring. We use the edible flowers to decorate salads as well as picking them for the vase.

Allium petals are edible, you can scatter them on salads. We use the more delicate types like cowanii and unifolium most often at Perch Hill.

Care Tips

Removing the foliage once it becomes tatty doesn't appear to affect the bulbs.
