Top size bulbs for bigger flowers
Easy to grow
There are certain alliums which fit perfectly and hugely enhance a border — their foliage is finer and their scale and drama just right to mix in, but not take over other things
- 15 bulbs of Allium cristophii
- 5 bulbs of Allium 'Summer Drummer'
- 5 bulbs of Allium macleanii 'His Excellency'
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.
