Firmament Allium

Firmament Allium

Dazzling form and colouration.

One of the best for delivering that something special gardeners crave. The 4-5" blooms have flat bottoms, giving them a unique, semi-spherical shape that makes them appear even larger. Dark purple florets with silver anthers create a shimmering effect and lure pollinators. A cross between Allium christophii and Allium atropurpureum, Firmament provides a long season of interest and is an exceptional cut flower.Alliums are not available in ID and WA.
