Planting and Growing Information

Plant these premium bulbs in fall for spectacular late spring to early summer blooms. Position in full sun to partial shade in well-drained soil, approximately 5 inches deep and 12 inches apart. Allium Christophii thrives in USDA hardiness zones 4-8, making it suitable for most continental US climates. After flowering, allow foliage to die back naturally to ensure strong performance in subsequent years. The strap-like foliage emerges early but remains relatively inconspicuous beneath showier companion plants.
