Purple Sensation

Note: Allium ship starting in late September based on availability and your zone, unlike other products. Plant around or after your first frost but before the ground freezes. 

Purple Sensation is a delightful Allium that produces 4-5” globes of tightly packed purple flowers atop 24-30” stems. This variety naturalizes quite easily and can tolerate some shade, though she does best in full sun. She is a favorite of bees and butterflies while remaining resistant to deer, rabbits, and other rodent pests. Purple Sensation performs best in zones 4-9, with added mulch for winter protection in zones 4-5. Plant Purple Sensation 6” below the soil line.

Purple Sensation is sold in packs of 10 for fall planting.

Planting Instructions:

1. Choose an area with good drainage that receives at least 6 hours of sun per day.

2. Dig planting holes 4 times the height of the bulb and spaced 6-8” apart. 

3. Place bulbs with points facing upward, and then gently pack the soil over the bulb.

4. Water once and then not again till spring.
