Allium 'Pink Jewel'

Allium 'Pink Jewel' features lovely light pink florets that form 3″ flower heads in June and July above fresh green foliage. Our Dutch grower recommends combining them with the slightly smaller, dark wine-red blooms of Allium atropurpureum for an eye-catching display.

The genus Allium (the Latin means "garlic") offers colorful, distinctive, and long-lasting forms that are standouts in the early summer garden. Alliums are sun-lovers and prefer well-drained, even sandy, soil. Deer, mice, chipmunks, and related predators generally avoid this group, so you can plant with impunity. Tuck them among clumps of later summer-flowering perennials where the Alliums' withering foliage will be hidden by the expanding perennials.
