For many years already the garden world enjoys her good looking daughter Allium Ambassador. But I’m glad there still is a flower and bulb growers who adores mother even more and re-introduced her again.
Allium giganteum has fallen into oblivion for a bit and that was a pity because her beauty is beyond compare and she is the latest and longest blooming of all the large flowering Alliums. She mainly owes her come-back to the flower trade because flower arrangers love to use this ornamental onion in their flower arrangements.
When the summer starts Allium giganteum always is in full bloom and despite the warm weather she amazes us with her long blooming period. Over and over again fresh flowers appear from the inside of flower ball and she blooms longer and longer and her size grows larger and larger.
Allium
Over the last decades the ornamental Onion has become very popular. In the older days we were just dealing with a handful of Alliums, nowadays we count dozens. Not just because she is a nice garden flower, also the flower industry embraced her as a cut flower.
Planting Allium:
Plant an Allium in full sun or light shade in well-drained soil. An Allium is ideal for the wild garden, but also does well in the common border where it considerably extends the flowering season for spring-flowering bulbs. For best results, plant them in groups of five or more. The bulbs can remain in place for years. Only when they grow too close together can you divide the bulbs in the autumn and replant them immediately.
