Use and Care Manual

Allium are in the same family as garlic, onions, chives and

shallots. This makes gardeners wonder if they should include

them in their ornamental gardening plans, as it conjures up

images of supermarket produce. But because good garden

designs are often made up of different shapes, allium’s

rounded blooms make for high drama and interest in the

garden. The Allium group gets more popular annually, from

over 300 species to choose. They amaze everyone, and few

plants create this kind of wow in the garden. We will be

adding many new varieties shortly.

About This Variety: Ivory Queen produces globe-shaped ivory blooms 5” wide with wide gray-green leaves. Heirloom variety which is one of the best Alliums for containers. Good naturalizer as it will come back for years to come. Growing Instructions: As Alliums do not like wet feet, find a sunny location where the soil drains well or try to improve the drainage. The bulbs will rot in wet areas. Aside from that, almost no maintenance is required.
