Allium

Allium Mount Everest is everything one would expect of an Allium with this name.  Impressive snowy white, globe-shaped flowerheads grow atop strong, study stems approximately 3 feet or more.  Planted against a dark background, they add height and interest to the late spring through early summer garden.  With blooms lasting 3-4 weeks, they’re versatile and hardy, attracting butterflies and bees no matter where they’re grown.  They return year after year with minimal care and attention.  Amazingly easy to grow.  Enjoy enormous blooms year after year.

Bloom late spring to early summer.  Can be grown successfully in containers and tubs.  Use to add interest to cut flower arrangements.  Deer resistant.

Hardy in Zones 4-9

Planting tip:  Select a site carefully for your Allium Mount Everest.  Because they do not like to be moved, permit them to stay where they were originally planted for 3-4 years before moving them to another location.  Bulblets often form along the main bulb.  When flowers diminish in size, dig the bulbs up in the fall, remove the bulblets and plant them in another location or give them to family members and friends to use in their gardens.
