Allium 'Red Giant'
Allium 'Red Giant' is a striking ornamental onion producing large spherical flower heads in rich reddish-purple tones, held on strong upright stems. Flowering in late spring to early summer, the bold globe-shaped blooms add architectural interest on compact plants, making them perfect for creating dramatic accents in borders and naturalistic planting schemes.
Easy to grow and highly attractive to pollinators, ‘Red Giant’ thrives in sunny, well-drained positions and combines beautifully with perennials and ornamental grasses. Its long-lasting flowers also make excellent cut or dried arrangements, extending their ornamental value beyond the garden.
