Growing to a height of 75-100cm, flowering May- July.Allium obliquum's zesty lime green spheres dance above unusually twisted stems bringing an air of eccentricity to your garden space. Growing to a height of 50-70cm, flowering June-August.Bees and other pollinators go mad for their nectar and pollen rich heads. Excellent both planted in bold drifts, where they will happily naturalise or as stand-alone specimens in your favourite containers. Alliums are both deer and rabbit resistant and look incredible when used as cut flowers, lasting well in a vase. Happy in any soil, even poor, as long as its well-drained in full sun. Hardy, drought tolerant, bulbous perennials.
