Allium Purple Sensation Bulbs – Pack of 10
Create a spectacular late-spring display with Allium Purple Sensation bulbs, one of the most popular ornamental alliums for adding height, structure and architectural interest to the garden.
Producing striking spherical flower heads on tall, upright stems, Allium ‘Purple Sensation’ makes a beautiful addition to flower borders, beds and large patio containers. Plant the bulbs in autumn and look forward to their impressive blooms appearing around May and June.
This great-value pack contains 10 Allium Purple Sensation bulbs, perfect for planting together in groups for maximum impact.
Striking Ornamental Alliums for Spring Gardens
Allium Purple Sensation is particularly effective when planted amongst perennials and ornamental grasses. Its tall stems rise above surrounding plants, creating distinctive globe-shaped flowers that bring structure and interest to borders.
Reaching approximately 100cm in height, these tall alliums are an excellent choice for adding vertical interest without taking up large amounts of ground space.
Perfect for Borders and Containers
Plant Allium Purple Sensation bulbs in generous groups throughout sunny borders for a dramatic display. They can also be grown in sufficiently large, well-drained containers, making them a versatile choice for patios and smaller gardens.
For a natural-looking display, position the bulbs amongst perennial plants. As the allium foliage begins to fade around flowering time, neighbouring plants can help disguise the dying leaves while allowing the tall flower stems to remain the focal point.

How to Grow Allium Purple Sensation
For the best results, plant your Allium Purple Sensation bulbs in autumn in a sunny position with fertile, free-draining soil.
Avoid planting bulbs in areas that remain waterlogged, particularly during winter, as excessively wet conditions can cause bulbs to rot.
