Cottage Garden – The Allium Garden Bulbs is a striking collection of ornamental alliums selected to create height, texture and long-lasting colour in late spring and early summer. This elegant mix includes the deep burgundy blooms of Allium Atropurpureum, the spectacular star-shaped flower heads of Allium Cristophii, the unique egg-shaped flowers of Allium Sphaerocephalon and the vibrant purple globes of Allium Purple Sensation. Together they create an architectural display that is perfect for cottage gardens, mixed borders and pollinator-friendly planting schemes.

Flowering from late spring into early summer, these ornamental alliums produce impressive globe-shaped flower heads on strong upright stems. Their distinctive flowers attract bees and butterflies while providing excellent structure in the garden. They also make superb cut and dried flowers, extending their beauty well beyond the flowering season.
