Allium 'Round and Purple' bears incredibly large flower heads on tall, sturdy stems. It's a fantastic choice for growing towards the back of sunny borders, and makes an impressive cut flower, both fresh and dried.
For best results, plant bulbs in fertile, well-drained soil up to three times their diameter. Grow in well-drained soil in full sun. Allium 'Round and Purple' isn't fully hardy and in colder regions should be mulched, or planted in pots and moved to a frost free area in autumn.
