Allium rosenbachianum 'Album'

Allium rosenbachianum ‘Album’ bears globular, flower heads of star-shaped white florets with a green eye. As they mature, the green eyes develop into seed cases held on thin stalks, to striking effect. It works well when planted in drifts with ornamental grasses and other alliums, and makes a wonderful cut flower.

For best results, grow Allium rosenbachianum ‘Album’ in well-drained soil in full sun. Plant bulbs in fertile, well-drained soil up to three times their diameter.
