Rainbow Allium Mix
Brighten your garden with the Rainbow Allium Mix, a cheerful collection of small, ornamental onion bulbs. These jewel-toned beauties produce vivid pinks, whites, and yellows, perfectly bridging the gap between tulip season and early summer blooms like peonies. Growing under a foot tall, they are ideal for the front of borders or naturalizing areas. Alliums are related to edible onions and chives but are purely for ornamental display. For the best effect, experienced gardeners often plant them closely so their flower stalks rise above other perennials whose fading foliage can help cover the base.
