Allium 'Bobblehead' plant details

Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Allium 'Bobblehead' has extra large heads up to 3.5 inches wide of pale lavender flowers atop blue-green foliage with a twist to each leaf. The flowers bloom over a long period in midsummer. Ornamental onions provide a flower display unlike most other perennials with numerous small florets held in delightful spheres that are useful for contrasting with other flower shapes in the garden. Awesome in the rock or herb garden, in mass plantings (even as a ground cover), at the front of the border, in containers, and in the vase. This is a non-bulbous cultivar that blooms in summer. Attracts bees and butterflies. Deer and rabbit resistant.
