The flower of Allium Atropurpureum has a unique deep purple-red colour that doesn’t appear very often in nature. This allium is originally from the Balkan and was introduced in the 1800’s. With its sturdy stem and a delightful, tightly packed cluster of star-shaped flowers allium truly is a unique flower. The flowers bloom between June and July and it reaches 60 cm in length. Unlike our other types of allium, the Atropurpureum naturalizes on its own.

Other information

  • Maak eerst de grond waar de alliumbollen geplant zullen worden goed los. Dan is de grond makkelijker te bewerken.
  • Graaf een gat en zorg dat het 2 tot 3 keer zo diep is als de hoogte van de bollen. Zorg dat de afstand tussen de bollen 2 keer zo groot is als de diameter van de bollen.
  • Plant de bloembollen in het gat met de puntige kant naar boven of met de wortelbasis naar beneden. 
  • Bedek de alliumbollen met aarde en geef ze goed water.
