Description

A beautiful Allium variety with strong upright foliage showcasing vibrant green color and thicker leaves. Light pink flowers seem to float above other plants on tall stalks. Flowers attract butterflies, bees, and birds. This plant keeps its foliage well into the winter months, eventually turning yellow-green to yellow in the coldest weather. Foliage may remain green in some locations or in mild winters. Vertical foliage makes for a nice accent in the green roof meadow, adding some height and increasing the potential for biodiversity. Sold as bare root bulbs. Available as plugs as a custom order. Please contact office for lead time.
