From mid to late summer perfectly round clusters of deep purple stand atop leafless stems like lollipops. The stunning blue leaves look beautiful all season long. Plant Serendipity Ornamental Onion along walkways, in the front or middle of a perennial border, or in swaths to create a showy display.

Alliums are charming plants for the perennial, rock, or herb garden. These hardworking plants reward us with beautiful flowers even in hot, dry spots. They make an ideal edging and low-care ground cover. When the foliage is bruised, it smells like onions since they are in the onion family. Butterflies and honeybees adore the flowers’ sweet nectar, but deer and rabbits steer clear of this delight. A very easy to grow Allium, Serependity Ornamental Onion will grow in most soil, even clay.

Plant in full sun in soil that has been amended with compost or other organic matter. Water well while the plant is getting established. For best blooming, give consistent moisture, especially when the plant is setting up buds and blooming.
