Mediterranean Bells Allium

Pendulous umbels of bell-shaped flowers form graceful, 2” wide clusters of dainty florets in pastel shades, rosy pink, and sage with a creamy white edge. The flowering umbels burst open from the nodding, papery buds on top of strong, 32-36" stems.  Plant Mediterranean Bells Allium, also known as Sicilian Honey Lily, in masses for the greatest impact. Interplant with other spring flowering bulbs like tulips and narcissus.
