Allium hollandicum Purple Sensation

An intensely deep purple coloured strain, with heads the size of small oranges. Another of that select group of those ‘must have’ Alliums. They provide purple polka dots to your planting scheme, adding colour, texture and geometric silhouettes to your borders. Derived from a clone these should all be the same hue. The RHS trial report said of them: “an excellent performance and is reliably perennial”.

RHS Award of Garden Merit.

This plant/cultivar has been awarded the RHS Award of Garden Merit because it has proved to be reliable in appropriate conditions and a good performing plant. 

Regrettably the last few bulbs are smaller than we expected. They will still flower.

Planting Instructions

Cover the Allium hollandicum Purple Sensation bulb with 3-4" (8-10 cm) of soil in a sunny situation and a well drained soil. Allow 6" (15 cm) between bulbs and plant without excessive regimentation.
