Botanical Name: Allium giganteum
Description: Blooms the size of softballs atop tall, regal flower stems.  Always impressive and eye-catching, they grow 3 to 4 feet tall and the flowers are a clear, vivid purple.  Plant them in dramatic groupings or along the back of the border.  A sheltered location where the blooms won’t be exposed to strong winds is a good idea.  Flowers open in mid to early summer and will attract butterflies to your garden.
