Alliums are in the same family as garlic, onions, chives, and shallots. This makes gardeners wonder if they should include them in their ornamental gardening plans, as it conjures up images of supermarket produce. But because good garden designs are often made up of contrasting shapes, Alliums rounded blooms make for great drama and interest in the garden. The Allium group gets more popular annually, and no wonder, from over 300 species to choose. They amaze everyone, and few plants create this kind of wow in the garden. Purple Sensation produces basal leaves that die by the time it flowers. The bloom carries numerous purple-pink flowers in a dense cluster. Excellent nectar source for pollinators. Plant about 9 bulbs per square foot.
