Description

An Allium variety featuring strong upright foliage showcasing vibrant green color and thicker leaves. Pink to white buds open to pink to lavender flowers that attract butterflies, bees, and birds. This plant keeps its foliage well into the autumn months and may retain its foliage 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 the office for lead times.
