Allium Globemaster

€6.95

Allium Globemaster is one of the most impressive ornamental onions, producing enormous globe-shaped flower heads made up of hundreds of tightly packed lilac-purple star-shaped florets. Flowering from May to June and reaching approximately 80cm in height, this award-winning variety creates a spectacular architectural display in borders while attracting bees, butterflies and other beneficial pollinators throughout the season.

Perfect for sunny borders and contemporary or cottage gardens, Allium Globemaster thrives in fertile, well-drained soil. Its exceptionally large blooms remain attractive for weeks and are equally striking as fresh or dried cut flowers, while the decorative seed heads continue to add structure long after flowering has finished.
