Allium
Ornamental Onion
Our selections are embellished versions of the common culinary bulbs. Prospering in a sunny well-drained site, these pest-resistant Alliums add flair to the garden, your favorite container and a fresh or dried arrangement.
Narrow curly bluish green leaves fashion a dwarf tightset pinwheel-like rosette that evokes swirling eddies and inspires the cultivar name. Bred by onion enthusiast Mark McDonough, this unique Allium senescens var. glaucum selection serves up rounded pastel lavender pink flowers on 6 in. stems. An adaptable drought-tolerant pollinator minion, Allium "Blue Eddy" wards off deer, favors well-drained crannies, makes a lovely cut flower and can be utilized in the herb garden, amid stone work or along pathways.
