The round flower heads of Allium Giganteum are composed of numerous tiny, star-shaped florets, typically in vibrant shades of purple. These large, eye-catching blooms appear in late spring to early summer, providing a spectacular display that lasts for several weeks. The flowers sit atop tall, sturdy stems, making them an excellent choice for the back of the border or as a statement piece in the garden.
