They're almost too big and beautiful to be real. Blooms are excellent for cutting and dry perfectly. Superb with the chartreuse sprays of Alchemilla, or the pastel shades of Roses and Peonies. Late spring. Heirloom, 1884.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe genus Allium (the Latin means \"garlic\") offers colorful, distinctive, and long-lasting forms that are standouts in the early summer garden. Alliums are sun-lovers and prefer well-drained, even sandy, soil. Deer, mice, chipmunks, and related predators generally avoid this group, so you can plant with impunity. Tuck them among clumps of summer-flowering perennials where the Alliums' withering foliage will be hidden by the expanding perennials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor more information on growing Allium, click Growing Guide.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"White Flower Farm","offers":[{"title":"12 bulbs","offer_id":47980107432089,"sku":"0307003-F","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0532\/9983\/9129\/files\/18264.jpg?v=1782075734","url":"https:\/\/www.whiteflowerfarm.com\/products\/allium-cristophii","provider":"White Flower Farm","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
