Allium Cernuum Hidcote AGM

Description

Drooping heads of rich pink large flowers.

This mid-height Allium is a real show stopper once established in the garden with guaranteed flowering. Upright stems of 35cm produce a mass of ball bearing shaped deep pink flowers above short foliage. This allium like many is great for bees and other pollinating insects. This is another perfect plant for those dry summers we are having and will work in areas from borders, alpine gardens to containers.
