Allium Azureum | Blue of the Heavens | Blue Globe Onion | Blue Garlic
Dense 1-2" globes of bright blue catch the eye, while the 30-50 starry florets hold the gaze. Introducing the clear blue of roadside cornflowers into the early summer garden, these alliums develop into large, impressive clumps over time. A tough variety with Siberian origins, blue globe onions are happy in moderate to cold sites where they happily thrive without any special care. They also grow well in the dry heat of the West. Lovely with white, pink or red roses for a cottage garden look or with yellow for the classic French country pairing. Rodent and deer resistant.
