Allium Nodding Onion
Allium cernuum
Perennial. Onions in the flower garden? This showy ornamental onion brightens the garden with clusters of nodding flowers above flattened, mid-green leaves. Both the leaves and edible flowers have the typical onion scent. Plants are highly adaptable in the garden, thriving in sun or shade, moist soils or dry, water-wise landscapes. Use to attract bees and butterflies in borders, wildflower gardens or meadow plantings. Deer resistant.
Blooms late spring to summer
Height: 1 ½' to 2'
Days to Emerge: 14 - 30 days
Seed Depth: 1/4"
Seed Spacing: 4 seeds every 8"
Thinning: When 2" tall, thin to 1 every 8"
When to sow outside: 2 to 4 weeks after average last frost, or late fall for germination the following spring.
When to start inside: 8 to 10 weeks before average last frost.
Special germination instructions: Germination may improve if seed receives a cold treatment. (Instructions inside packet.)
