Allium Amethystinum ‘Red Mohican’

Product Details

From the same breeder as the ever-popular ‘Globemaster’ comes this flamboyant variety boasting rich burgundy globes with distinctive crests of tiny buds that open to white florets. Allium amethystinum ‘Red Mohican’ is stunning combined with the spiky blue blooms of Eryngium.

The genus Allium (the Latin means “garlic”) offers colorful, distinctive, and long-lasting forms that are standouts in the early summer garden. Alliums are sun-lovers and prefer well-drained, even sandy, soil. Deer, mice, chipmunks, and related predators generally avoid this group, so you can plant with impunity. Tuck them among clumps of summer-flowering perennials where the Alliums’ withering foliage will be hidden by the expanding perennials.
