Allium Nigrum

BLOM Verified independent store

→

Spherical, structural and quietly magnificent, Nigrum produces its unusual living green globe above the fading foliage of earlier spring flowers, arriving exactly when the border n eeds a new focal point and delivering one with considerable style. Bees arrive the moment the first flowers open and remain until the last one fades, Nigrum is genuinely valuable to pollinators, not just decorative. Even after flowering, the seedheads add weeks of structural interest, catching dew in the mornings and frost when autumn arrives. Hand selected from Blom's growers for the firm, full bulbs that produce the most generous flower globes, the kind of allium that photographs beautifully and looks even better in person. Show more
