Fantastic Allium Collection

My three favourite alliums for growing in drifts in the garden and for picking for inside. Don’t pick the leaves, just the flower stems and put a drop of bleach in the water to extend their vase life and prevent any oniony smell.

Don’t chuck the flowers when they go over hang them upside down to dry for spraying silver for your Christmas tree. This collection flowers from May to July.

This collection contains:

• 15 bulbs of Allium cristophii
• 15 bulbs of Allium hollandicum ‘Purple Sensation’
• 40 bulbs of Allium sphaerocephalon

This can be gift wrapped in our exclusive hessian sack, with ribbon and a Sarah Raven gift card. You will be able to add this to your basket once you begin the checkout process. To add a gift message to your order, simply fill out the details at the delivery stage of the checkout.

Please note: only items which are showing in stock can be gift wrapped.

Allium petals are edible, you can scatter them on salads. We use the more delicate types like cowanii and unifolium most often at Perch Hill.
