Onion (Ornamental)Allium
1. Bubble Bath
Click to display
Soft lavender flower clusters are held on strong stems above a mound of glaucous blue green foliage. The wide, linear leaves have a slight twist. Compared to ‘Millenium’, ‘Bubble Bath’ has lighter purple flowers on larger 3" flower clusters. Compared with the bulb-type varieties like ‘Globemaster’, this type of Allium will have smaller, more numerous flower clusters, bloom in summer instead of spring, and have foliage that stays attractive through fall.

2. Lavender Bubbles
Click to display
Nearing the end of summer, this beautiful perennial brings life to a garden with its beautiful bubble-shaped flowers. Dark dusty purple flower globes are produced above attractive glaucous blue-green foliage. The leaf blades twist and curl to provide additional interest. Compared to the popular ‘Millenium’, ‘Lavender Bubbles’ blooms later and is a darker shade of purple. Like other Allium, ‘Lavender Bubbles’ is carefree, easy to grow, and deer and rabbit resistant.

3. Little Sapphire
Click to display
Stunning new addition that blooms later than ‘Millenium’ and ‘Windy City’. Densely clustered dark purple flowers held above neat clumps of healthy grey-green foliage.

4. Millenium
Click to display
‘Millenium’ forms a compact, upright clump of glossy green, thick and strappy leaves which emit a slight smell of onion when crushed. In late July and August here in Michigan, a profusion of large 2”, bright rosy purple, tightly rounded clusters of flowers appear on strong stems just above the attractive foliage. Butterflies and honeybees adore the flowers’ sweet nectar but deer and rabbits steer clear of this perennial beauty. This plant has not been known to reseed in the landscape and is very easy to grow.

5. Serendipity
Click to display
The word "serendipity" means an unexpected occurrence, and what a fitting name for this sport of the popular ‘Millenium’! The sport shares all of the qualities that made ‘Millenium’ great, but with attractive blue foliage. Globe-like, rosy-purple flowers match the parent and are produced profusely in mid to late summer. When crushed, the leaves will emit a smell of onion.

Butterflies and honeybees adore the flowers’ sweet nectar but deer and rabbits steer clear of this perennial beauty.

9C-SPW #1 Pot 15"-20"10"-15"4-8
  
6. Windy City
Click to display
A dwarf variety with 2" round violet-purple flowers that appear in mid-summer, dark purple stems add color when not in bloom, clumping habit, very drought tolerant, seed heads persist for winter interest.
9C-S8" TC 15"-18"15"-18"4-9
