Planting Allium bulbs

Alliums are spring and summer bloomers, the bulbs bloom in early summer when the allium bulbs are planted from October to December, before the first frost is in the ground. If you plant the allium bulbs in the fall, you will enjoy the beautifully colored flowers in the spring and early summer. Alliums grow best in sandy soil that is not too wet and generally attract insects, such as bees and butterflies. For planting distance, keep to 3x the width of the bulb, and for planting, also keep to 3x the height of the bulb. Allium bulbs can be planted in the ground by hand. It is possibly useful to use a bulb-planter.

Different types of allium

Alliums are a wonderful addition and can be planted solitary or in groups and attract bees and butterflies. The allium is available in many varieties, such as the large-flowered Gladiator, Globemaster and Purple Sensation and the small-flowered varieties such as luteum moly, sphaerochephalon and oreophilum, which are very suitable for naturalizing. Large-flowered allium bulbs are real eye-catchers and a great addition to the garden and attract bees and butterflies. Large ornamental onion bulbs are perfect for combining with perennials, recur well and make great cut flowers. The large allium flowers smell a little like honey. Small-flowered allium bulbs are a perfect addition to the garden. These small ornamental onion bulbs give rich blooms with naturalize easily in the garden. Small ornamental onions come back annually, require no maintenance and multiply quickly. Blue, pink and white alliums are available. To make your choice you can use the filter; choose for example flowering period, color, group or height.

 

History of the allium

Allium means "garlic" in Latin. There are also sources that say Allium comes from the Greek word 'aleo' which means avoidance (due to the smell of garlic). Linneaus first described Allium in 1753. The genus Allium includes nearly 1,000 species. This includes species that are edible, such as onion, shallot, chives and leeks. Depending on the species, the bulbs are 3 to 30 centimeters in size. The Allium oreophilum grows to only 5 centimeters in height, while the Allium giganteum can reach over a meter in height. Most species bloom in early summer, right after many spring bloomers. Originally, the allium comes from the Northern Hemisphere, Asia and the Middle East.
