Allium hollandicum ‘Purple Sensation’ flower is a nice addition to the landscape, not only for its color but also for its globular shape. It is a very impressive hybrid Flowering Onion. It produces a tuft of large, strap-shaped leaves, with a strong stem 3′ or so high holding a ball up to 6″ across of many small purple starry flowers over quite a long period. Allium Purple flowers, like other spring-flowering bulbs, purple alliums need to be planted in the fall.
