Allium Bulbs
Allium bulbs bring bold colour, height, and architectural interest to sunny gardens with their distinctive globe-shaped flower heads. Also known as ornamental onions, alliums produce eye-catching blooms that rise above surrounding foliage and add structure to flower beds, borders, cottage gardens, and mixed perennial plantings. Their flowers appear in shades of purple, pink, white, and blue, creating striking displays from late spring into summer, depending on the type. Many allium flowers attract bees and other pollinators while remaining relatively resistant to deer and rodents. These dependable bulbs perform best in full sun and well-drained soil, making them suitable for many Canadian gardens. Plant them in groups for a dramatic effect, weave them between perennials and ornamental grasses, or use taller varieties to create vertical accents. Smaller alliums also work well along pathways, at the front of borders, and in containers. Once established, these low-maintenance plants return year after year and require little care. Browse our allium bulbs and add long-lasting colour, texture, and pollinator appeal to your garden.
