Plant our Big Mix of Little Alliums and enjoy a parade of petite, smaller-flowering Ornamental Onions from spring into summer. Flowers open sequentially in pink, purplish-pink, white, or yellow. This colorful group looks best along the edge of a shrub border or between the crowns of late-blooming perennials. Plant thickly for a superb show. The mix includes 5 different Alliums: A. moly, A. neapolitanum, A. oreophilum, A. roseum, and A. unifolium. Not labeled individually. 50 bulbs cover 3-5 sq ft. Plant 10–15 bulbs per sq ft.
The genus Allium (the Latin name means "garlic") offers colorful, distinctive, and long-lasting forms that are standouts in the early summer garden. Alliums are sun-lovers and prefer well-drained, even sandy soil. Deer, mice, chipmunks and related predators generally avoid this group, so you can plant with impunity. Tuck them among clumps of summer-flowering perennials where the Allium's withering foliage will be hidden by the expanding perennials.
