Allium schubertii

The schubertii allium has extremely large blooms—up to 14"!—with small, reddish-purple flowers that blooms in May to June. Carefree and rewarding, they will tolerate poor garden soil, and once established, they will naturalize easily. Alliums are deer resistant and make excellent cut flowers. Just one of these blooms in a vase is sure to make a statement.
