Description
Let the dainty bobbing blooms of Allium collection 'Endless Summer' bring a breezy softness to your borders this summer. Comprising Allium 'Graceful Beauty' and Allium 'Rosy Beauty', this pretty pair spring into action for a June-July show, bringing a beautiful bounty of delicate globe-shaped flowerheads on slender stems to your planting scheme. These alliums flaunt a natural charm and a relaxed habit which is perfect for a cottage garden or romantic, informal style planting scheme. Growing to a compact height of between 50-70cm, they are well suited to a space near the front of a border, gravel area or large containers.
If you love alliums, it's great to be able to extend the allium season with a combo like Allium collection 'Endless Summer'. Where many alliums look their best during May to June, these make a later start and will take their moment to shine in planting schemes among early to mid-summer flowering plants. The delicate-looking flowers fit in perfectly with pastel planting schemes, or to contract among dark colours.
