Allium 'Red Mohican' is a striking allium, bearing unusual, maroon-red drumstick-style flower heads with extra tufts at the top, tipped with tiny white flowers (resembling a mohican). It's a great choice for growing in a mixed herbaceous border among ornamental grasses. It also works well in a pot.

Grow Allium 'Red Mohican' in well-drained soil in full sun. For best results, plant bulbs in fertile, well-drained soil up to three times their diameter.
