Allium Purple Sensation
In the Netherlands we call Allium Purple Sensation – The Stargazer. This stunning violet allium blooms during the whole month (May to June), which is a perfect transition flower between the spring and the summer. The allium consists of the tightly packed cluster of hundreds small, star-shaped flowers that form a huge and round flower ball! Because the stem of Allium Purple Sensation needs a little bit of support – plant it near the other plants or flowers.
Allium belongs to the same family as garlic and onion, that is why it’s called an “ornamental onion”. Make sure to plant your allium in a dry and well-drained (sandy) soil and open areas with full sun.

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.
