Description
If you’re looking for planting inspiration – try this dazzling pair! We’ve combined two amazing allium varieties into one handy, ready-made collection, comprising Allium azureum (caeruleum) and Allium moly. Grow these two together and you’re in for a real treat. This striking blue and yellow allium combination is a real feast for the eyes. When you’re thinking of planting combinations, you have to consider flowering time, height, structure and colour – we’ve done that for you so all you have to do is plant the bulbs in mixed groups in autumn and wait for the show to start! Alliums not only provide excellent early summer interest to the garden, but they make great cut flowers too.
Plant big groups of these two allium varieties so you can afford to snip a few stems to display in your home.
