Allium 'Globemaster' is a fantastic choice for sunny borders, bearing rounded, deep violet flower heads, 15-20cm in diameter, from late spring to early summer. It works well when planted in drifts with ornamental grasses and other alliums, including lighter flowered 'Beau Regard'. It makes a wonderful cut flower.

For best results, plant Allium 'Globemaster' bulbs in fertile, well-drained soil up to three times their diameter, in well-drained soil in full sun.
