Tips
Alliums – also known as ornamental onions – are true eye-catchers. Their large, globe-shaped flowers on tall stems create a real wow-effect in your garden or pots. They bloom richly in May and June – just between spring and summer flowers – and remain decorative even after flowering.
✔ Easy & reliable: Plant them in autumn and enjoy spectacular blooms year after year – even without green fingers
✔ Attract bees & butterflies: Alliums are rich in nectar and help support a healthy, lively garden
✔ Perfect to combine: Add structure and height – beautiful when paired with perennials and ornamental grasses that subtly hide the fading foliage
✔ Great for pots & borders: Whether in large containers or straight into the ground – Alliums always steal the show
✔ Sustainable & hardy: They return every year with very little care
How to plant & care for Alliums
✔ Planting depth: Three times the height of the bulb
✔ Location: Sunny and open – the more sun, the better they bloom
✔ Soil: Well-drained soil – better a bit dry than too wet
✔ Watering: Only at planting and during dry spells
✔ After flowering: Let the foliage die back completely before removing – this allows the bulb to recharge for next year
✔ Overwintering: Alliums are fully hardy – no need to lift the bulbs
Alliums bring colour, height and wonder to your garden!
Grow your own happiness – with the power of Alliums.
