Allium Atropurpureum

Spherical, structural and quietly magnificent, Atropurpureum produces its red,purple globe above the fading foliage of earlier spring flowers — arriving exactly when the border needs a new focal point and delivering one with considerable style. As a cut flower it is exceptional — long-stemmed and dramatic in a vase, particularly at the stage where the globe is fully formed but still tightly closed. Leave it in the border and the bees will thank you; cut it for the house and everyone else will. Every bulb sourced from Dutch growers with generations of expertise in ornamental bulb cultivation — the foundation of an allium display that improves with every passing season.
