Introduce a flurry of Allium colour to the garden with the 'Big Impact' Mix. Height and style in abundance, these tough and hardy varieties emerge with pom pom-like spheres on tall straight stems. Loved by bees and butterflies, with each labelled by the RHS as a 'Plant for Pollinators'.
Each pack contains:
2 x Allium ‘Violet Beauty’: Clusters of violet-blue spiked flowers sit on tall green stems. Holds the RHS Award of Garden Merit. Grows up to 80cm, flowering May – June. Bulb size 6/7.
2 x Allium karataviense: Pinky white flowers above fleshy, grey-green leaves. Despite having the shortest stems of the bunch, the flowers are still just as impressive as those that grow around, reaching a size similar to an apple. Grows up to 20cm, flowering May – June. Bulb size 14/16.
2 x Allium ‘Purple Sensation’: Enormous bright purple spherical flowers stand tall on thin stems above deep green leaves. Closely related to onions, but aren't edible, Alliums are very tough, hardy, and are great for beginner gardeners to have a go at growing. Holds the RHS Award of Garden Merit.

2 x Allium nigrum: White globe-shaped flowers sit above broad, ornamental, blue-green leaves on these wonderful Alliums. Grows up to 75cm, flowering June. Bulb size 9/10.
2 x Allium schubertii: Bursting like a floral firework, caught in motion! You're sure to love these starburst-like flowers, large in size, and outward stretching. Bright green strappy leaves make up the plant in spring, dying away before the flowers have time to emerge. Blooms are pinkish purple. Grows up to 50cm, flowering June. Bulb size 10/12.
Supplied as a mixed pack of 10 bulbs, ready to plant.
