Description
My three favourite alliums for growing in drifts in the garden and for picking for inside. Don't pick the leaves, just the flower stems and put a drop of bleach in the water to extend their vase life and prevent any oniony smell.
Don't chuck the flowers when they go over – hang them upside down to dry for spraying silver for your Christmas tree. This collection flowers from May to July.
This collection contains:
- 15 bulbs of Allium cristophii
- 15 bulbs of Allium hollandicum 'Purple Sensation'
- 40 bulbs of Allium sphaerocephalon
This can be gift wrapped in our exclusive hessian sack, with ribbon and a Sarah Raven gift card. You will be able to add this to your basket once you begin the checkout process. To add a gift message to your order, simply fill out the details at the delivery stage of the checkout.
Please note: only items which are showing ‘in stock’ can be gift wrapped.
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.
On occasion we may need to send you an alternative variety to the one shown, which will be selected by our growing team to ensure its suitability. It will be of equal or greater value to the original. Please contact our customer service team if there are any problems.
Care Tips
Removing the foliage once it becomes tatty doesn't appear to affect the bulbs.
