Allium 'Sugar Melt' (Sugar Melt Onion)

SunZone: 5-8, at least 6" tall Origin: Hybrid

Open House/Web-Only! New crop available 3-5-2009 We had almost given up on alliums after growing far too many weedy species but have been delighted to find great non-weedy hybrids, thanks to Allium guru Mark McDonough. This hybrid of Mark's combines the best traits of both Allium nutans with the popular Allium senescens. A. 'Sugar Melt' has been a standout in our rock garden, making a 6" tall x 8" wide circular clump of narrow green leaves, topped in early July (later in colder climates) with 16" stems of light pink flower balls...a perfect rock garden plant. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
