Planting Advice

Allium require full sun for the best blooms
Well drained soil is a must for allium bulbs
In heavy, clay and poorly drained soils amend the soil prior to planting. Amend your existing soil by incorporating a combination of top soil, compost, manure, and leaf mold.
Fertilize at planting with Hi Yield Bulb Food or for organic gardening use Bulb-Tone. Apply fertilizer at least 3” below the bottom of the bulbs so that the roots will get the most benefit from the fertilizer.
Plant allium bulbs 4-6” deep, with the old roots of the bulb touching the earth, the pointed end should be facing the sky.
Spacing will vary based on variety, refer to the Allium packaging for specifics. Plant allium in clusters or space throughout the garden for a neat geometric design element.
Immediately after planting, water the allium planting area. This helps to eliminate air pockets. After the initial planting bulbs do not require additional watering in fall or winter and prefer to be kept dry.
Apply a 2” layer of mulch in late fall.

Dramatic

Cons:

Some did not flower

I was least excited for the Star of Persia, but it was the most striking!! Huge firework like flowers. The Mount Everest allium bloomed first, very regal blooms. The Giant Allium had some mutation issues. Some of the stems grew incredibly thick before the buds rotted away. One bulb put up two stems. Beautiful flowers the bees loved too!
