Allium Bulbs

The stunning heads of alliums are sometimes described as "fireworks, frozen mid explosion" and certainly provide any garden with a dramatic touch.

Alliums do best in a sunny spot in your garden and look wonderful with their tall heads pushing through the foliage of your perennials. Spring and summer flowering alliums are also attractive to a wide variety of bees and other pollinators in the garden. Read our blog post on alliums for more information.

Bare root Allium are perfect for planting with hardy perennial plants, lilies and summer flowering bulbs.

Where to Plant Allium Bulbs

Alliums are members of the onion family who love the sun, so it’s worth bearing this in mind when planting your allium bulbs. For best results, alliums will need a sheltered spot to prevent their tall flowers from blowing over with free draining soil and plenty of sunshine.
