Flowering Onion

Allium aflatunense

Description:

Alium in various stages of bloom in my garden.

Habitat:

partial to full sun flowering plant, grows very well in zones 4-8, makes a great addition to your flower beds (best with your bulbs) will spread out rather quickly so some thinning every few years may be needed.

Thank you Karen! These are wonderful plants and give a nice splash of color and stalky contrast to low growing flowers as well. I mix them in, in a variety of places. They look super when growing among candy tuft, creeping flox, and other various ground covers.

Lovely series Brandon! I love alliums, they are so useful in the garden as they take up no space at all & look great growing up between other plants.

Thank you Emma! These are planted with hyacinth, and tulips so that I have a steady stream of blossoms first thing in the spring in this bed.
