Allium 'Marshmellow' bears large flower heads on tall, sturdy stems – each floret is an unusual soft pink, with a green centre. It's a fantastic choice for growing towards the back of sunny borders, and makes an impressive cut flower, both fresh and dried.
For best results, plant bulbs in fertile, well-drained soil up to three times their diameter. Grow Allium 'Marshmellow' in well-drained soil in full sun. It's not fully hardy and in colder regions should be mulched or planted in pots and moved to a frost free area in autumn.
