Allium Hollandicum Purple Sensation AGM Bulbs
Allium Hollandicum Purple Sensation AGM Bulbs
A cherished classic within the Ornamental Onion family, Purple Sensation stands as an enduring favourite. Its splendid, perfectly purple globe-shaped blooms set it apart from other Alliums and companion plants. This exceptional variety thrives in well-drained, fertile soil, preferably in a sheltered location. From May onwards, its luminous, jewel-like flower heads are renowned for their ability to attract beneficial pollinators such as bees, moths, and butterflies. Whether planted in groups or drifting through ornamental grasses, this plant exudes a stunning presence. Its cut flowers can grace your vases for up to two weeks. For a harmonious garden composition, consider pairing it with Carex buchananii, Tulbaghia violacea, Cirisium rivulare atropurpurem, and other Alliums. To establish this beauty in your garden, plant its bulbs between September and November or December. Notably, Allium Hollandicum Purple Sensation has earned the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit.
