Thompson And Morgan Allium Schubertii 6 Bulbs Inc:, Purple

This hardy perennial creates a truly stunning display. Allium 'Schubertii' has spectacular flower heads with small, star-shaped, pink-purple florets on stems of differing lengths, creating an eye-catching, explosion-like aesthetic. They make a fabulous cut flower but if left, they will remain a great architectural border feature into the autumn months. Alliums thrive in light sandy, well drained soil in full sun. Avoid planting in cold wet soils as the bulbs are prone to rot in these conditions. Plant allium bulbs at a depth of 10cm (4") and a distance of 10cm (4") apart. A slow release fertilizer can be added to poor soils at the time of planting to improve fertility. When growing alliums, plant them where the leaves of other plants will cover the base of their stems. This will hide the old foliage which dies back before flowering begins. Alliums require little maintenance. Leave stems of faded allium flowers intact to enjoy their spectacular seedheads in autumn. Divide overcrowded clumps of alliums after flowering.
