Bulb
Plant Type
Giant
Also known as
Persian Shallot, Flowering Onion
Standing at a mighty 3 to 4 feet with blooms as big as 8 inches across and brimming with tiny white flowers, the White Giant allium is an absolutely gorgeous addition to flower beds and borders. Plant them in groups for a WOW effect! They look amazing with peonies, irises, and delphiniums. They're pollinators, so an excellent source of nectar for bees, and being a member of the onion family, they have a scent that makes deer, rabbits, and other critters stay away!
