Allium Round and Purple

Allium ‘Round and Purple’ is a dependable choice for adding strong colour and clear structure to the late spring garden. Each upright stem carries a perfectly rounded flower head made up of hundreds of small, rich purple florets. The bold spheres rise above the foliage, creating a crisp, architectural effect that works just as well in formal borders as in more natural planting schemes.

This allium combines beautifully with tulips, ornamental grasses and early summer perennials, and is equally effective planted on its own or in groups. It is easy to grow, requires very little maintenance and returns reliably year after year. The flowers are long-lasting, both in the garden and as cut stems, and are highly attractive to bees and butterflies.
