Elegant Yet Rugged
Rose-pink 3-4” globes of star-shaped florets dotted with green eyes soar above the foliage. Plant Allium Pink Jewel with some of the classic blue Alliums and this gem will sparkle. Alliums are equally lovely when they dry on the stems and go to seed. Their beauty supplies color with interesting flower shapes to create a garden design with texture and depth. Even smaller gardens can accommodate their vertical presence.

Allium General Information

Alliums as a genus are easy-to-grow and come in a palette of colors, heights, flower shapes and bloom times. They provide long-lasting flowers ideal for bouquets and are sunny summer performers. Flowers dry to tan, and have remained upright all winter here in NE Ohio. Allium Pink Jewel is not used for culinary purposes. *Please note: We are not permitted to ship Alliums to Idaho or the Washington counties of Adams, Benton, Franklin, Grant or Klickitat.

Allium Plant Care

The smaller varieties of Allium should be planted 4" deep and the larger varieties 7-8" deep. Spacing 6-8". Likes well-drained soil. Clumps may be lifted and divided in either spring or fall. Allium will tolerate most soils, but performs best in sandy soils. Add organic matter like compost to clay soils if needed to improve drainage and lighten the soil.
