Description

When tulips go over in mid-May, until the roses and sweet peas come into their own in June, we can find ourselves scratching about for flowers to decorate house and tables. That’s just when I put together this collection to solve that problem — and I love the mix of shapes, colours, and textures. It’s a winner.

This collection contains:
  • 5 bulbs of Allium jesdianum 'Purple Rain'
  • 15 bulbs of Allium hollandicum 'Purple Sensation'
  • 3 bulbs of Allium schubertii
  • 15 bulbs of Iris 'Red Ember'

Care Tips

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