allium ‘Millenium’

Allium ‘Millenium’ (allium ‘Millenium’) has 15-18″ tall stalks topped with globe-like purple flowers in mid summer. It forms dense clusters over time of upright, glossy foliage.

Larger, with darker and rounder flower heads than allium ‘Summer Beauty’, this gorgeous ornamental onion offers a note of whimsy through the garden. Its seed heads stay stiff and round all winter long.
