Description

Allium 'Starlight' is a captivating new hybrid, a cross between A. atropurpureum and A. basalticum Silver Spring. It features umbels of florets that open in a dusk-pink hue and mature into pinkish-white flowers with dark eyes. The starburst-like rose stamens add a unique and striking feature to the blooms. Blooming in May to June, 'Starlight' reaches a height of 90 cm, making it a standout addition to garden borders and beds.

 

Benefits:

  • Unique Flower Form: Umbels of florets open in dusk-pink and mature to pinkish-white, with dark-eyed centers.
  • Striking Stamens: Starburst-like rose stamens enhance the visual appeal of the flowers.
  • Seasonal Blooms: Adds colour and interest to the garden in late spring to early summer.
  • Tall Stature: Reaches a height of 90 cm, ideal for creating vertical interest in garden borders.
  • Easy to Grow: Low maintenance and naturalizes well in the garden over time.

 

Growing Tips:

  • Planting Time: Plant bulbs in autumn, before the ground freezes, to allow for establishment before spring growth.
  • Soil Preparation: Choose well-drained soil enriched with compost to improve drainage and fertility.
  • Depth and Spacing: Plant bulbs 10-15 cm deep and space them 15-20 cm apart for optimal growth.
  • Sunlight: Select a location with full sun to partial shade, providing at least 6 hours of sunlight daily.

 

After Bloom Care:

  • Allow foliage to die back naturally to nourish bulbs for the following year's blooms.
  • Optionally, remove spent flower heads to tidy up the plant.

 

Enjoy the unique beauty and striking stamens of Allium 'Starlight' in your garden this spring.
