Description

Allium atropurpureum is a striking, late-spring to early-summer flowering bulb that offers unique architectural appeal. Its rich burgundy-purple florets are packed into dense, rounded umbels about 7–10 cm wide, held on upright stems. These ornamental onions bring depth, movement, and late-season interest to borders and mass planting schemes.

Highly valued in trade landscaping for both visual and ecological benefits, this variety is also pollinator-friendly.  It draws bees and other beneficial insects into planting areas. Long-lasting Allium atropurpureum pairs beautifully with ornamental grasses, perennials, and lighter-hued alliums like Mount Everest for contrast.
