Round-headed Leek (Allium spaerocephalon)

Round-headed Leek (Allium spaerocephalon)

Round-headed Leeks (Allium sphaerocephalon) are much more attractive than they sound! Their small round umbels of purple flowers make a helpful addition to borders when planted in numbers - they've managed to self seed across our flowerbeds very nicely! They flower in mid summer and like all alliums are a good source of nectar. They reach a height of about 2 feet. Like our other native bulbs, our Allium spaerocephalon come from an isolated nursery in deepest Wales, where they are lifted to order. We sell Round-headed Leeks in units of 20 or 100 bulbs. Please note that they are despatched after flowering, from August to October.
