Allium Roseum
In stock
Description
Extremely pretty, open clusters of pale to rich pink flowers open above clumps of strap-shaped foliage. Flowering in late spring or early summer, it is useful for bridging the flowerless gap, creating pockets of colour in the garden. Whether in patio pots, or creating drifts through the front border, it will slowly spread to form impressive colonies. Very few good seeds collected.
Sowing Advice
Sow seeds at any time, covering them very thinly with compost or grit, keeping the seed pot in a cool, well-lit spot outdoors. Artificial heat is not needed and can prevent germination so be very patient as many species will only germinate in the spring after chilling or freezing in the moist seed pot in the winter. Grow on individual seedlings in small pots until of sufficient size to be potted on or planted out into the open ground.
