Alliums are one of the most striking and reliable spring-flowering bulbs, offering spectacular globe-shaped blooms that float effortlessly above borders and beds. Whether you�re looking to add height, structure, or long-lasting colour, these versatile plants fit beautifully into any garden style.

Why Grow Alliums?
Alliums flower from late spring to early summer, bridging the gap between spring and summer displays. Their vivid hues add bold contrast to mixed planting schemes.
Loved by bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects, alliums provide an essential nectar source during their flowering season.
Their onion-scented foliage naturally deters pests, including deer, rabbits, and slugs, making them a great choice for easy gardening.
With tall, upright stems and compact, clump-forming varieties, alliums thrive in flower beds, containers, and wildflower meadows alike.

Planting Allium Bulbs for Maximum Impact
For the best results, plant allium bulbs in autumn in well-drained soil conditions. Position them in a sunny spot for the most vibrant blooms. Space bulbs according to their size, with larger alliums needing at least 20cm of space between each, while smaller varieties can be clustered 7-10cm apart for a bold display.

Alliums look stunning when paired with other perennials like salvias, lavender, or ornamental grasses, which soften their strong vertical impact. Whether planted en masse for eye-catching drama or dotted among other flowers for a naturalistic look, these long-lasting blooms will enhance your garden year after year."
