Votaniki Allium Atropurpureum Bulbs – Hardy Perennial, Deep Purple Red Flowers, Allium ‘Atropurpureum’ (Ornamental Onion) | Blooms Late Spring to Early Summer – Easy to Grow

Description

Allium Atropurpureum is a striking and distinctive ornamental onion that adds a touch of drama and sophistication to any garden. Allium atropurpureum is a hardy perennial bulb with star-shaped, deep purple-red flowers packed into a half-globe umbel, 2 inch wide (5 cm). Each flower consists of deep merlot-purple florets adorned with blueberry-purple eyes, which create a wonderful contrast of colors. Blooming in late spring to early summer, the flowers are borne on sturdy, upright stems above strap-shaped green leaves. If left in the garden after the flowers have faded, the seed heads will remain ornamental and add months of interest. This perennial beauty reaches a height of about 24-36 inches, making it an excellent choice for adding vertical interest to flower beds, borders, or containers. It is a pollinator favorite, attracting bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects, making it an eco-friendly choice for gardeners looking to support local wildlife. Allium Atropurpureum is also highly versatile, thriving in full sun and well-draining soil, and once established, it is drought-tolerant and low-maintenance. With its bold color, height, and ease to grow, Allium Atropurpureum is perfect for pairing with other late-spring to early-summer bloomers like peonies, irises, and ornamental grasses. Whether planted in a mixed border or used as a statement piece in a cottage garden, this ornamental allium is sure to leave a lasting impression.
