Description

Firework or sea-anemone shape. Flower stems of different lengths shoot out in every direction. Rosy-purple flowers sit at the tips. Honest fact: it forms no young bulblets. May to July, stems around 40 to 60 centimetres.

Allium schubertii is unique in form. Unequal stems create a chaos that works perfectly. Like a frozen firework, or a sea-anemone. Outstanding as a cut and dried flower. The flower skeleton stays beautiful for a long time. But it forms no young bulblets. It multiplies only by seed. After a few flowering years the bulb dies of old age. You need to know that. Give it space, also excellent in a pot. Oddity: the curved foliage dies back as the flower opens. The leaves never steal the show.

The Firework Globe. Frozen explosion in garden or pot.

The bulbs come from the Dutch bulb fields. Hand selected for quality and size, and delivered at the right planting time. A larger bulb holds more food, and you see that in the flower: more blooms, and fuller.

We offer our 100% Bloeigarantie. If nothing comes up, send us a message. You will get new bulbs, or your money back.

About this allium

What makes this allium special.

Allium Schubertii

Vuurwerk dat stilstaat

De steeltjes hebben allemaal een andere lengte, waardoor de bloem eruitziet als een explosie die halverwege is blijven hangen.

De rollende sierui

In het wild breekt de uitgedroogde bloemkop los en rolt met de wind over de grond, zaad achterlatend — vandaar de bijnaam tumbleweed onion.

Vijftig sterretjes per kop

Eén hoofd draagt wel vijftig kleine rozepaarse sterbloemetjes.
