Allium Purple Rain 10/12

Striking violet-purple umbels with strong architectural presence. ‘Purple Rain’ is a robust allium ideal for borders and pollinator planting in professional landscapes. Performs best in full sun with free-draining soil.

Description

Allium ‘Purple Rain’ is an impressive hybrid between Allium cristophii and Allium atropurpureum, combining the best of both parents. Its dense, starry, purple umbels reach up to 15cm across and are held aloft on sturdy stems around 80–100cm tall, creating a dramatic vertical presence in borders and mass plantings.

Ideal for landscapers and horticulturists seeking reliable performance and visual impact in mid-to-late spring displays. Purple Rain thrives in full sun and well-drained soils and offers excellent drought tolerance once established. It naturalises gently and attracts a range of pollinators, including bees and hoverflies.
