Allium 'Forelock' - NEW - DRY BULBS - Medium bag (3 bulbs) |

| Plant type: Bulb |

| Availability : available Sept - Nov |

A stunning newer form of Allium, with 2-3" rounded dusky-pink heads with a upright-pointing flowers atop. Unusual both in colour and form, this must be one to try in a sunny well-drained border.
As a rule of thumb, bulbs should be planted in a hole, the depth of which is around 3 times the height of the bulb. We usually dig our planting holes a little deeper than this and then fill the base with some fine grit which helps with drainage directly under the bulb. Never plant at perfectly measured distances apart as this can look artificial – for smaller bulbs we plant in clumps of five to nine in a staggered group so that they look more natural when they flower.
