‘Forelock’ allium (Allium ‘Forelock’)
Alliums sport often bizarrely shaped flower heads on long leafless stems, so they seem to float in mid-air. This curious new arrival, from the Dutch hybridizer who created the much-loved ‘Globemaster’ allium, has large maroon-purple heads with a distinct tufted top on sturdy 30-inch stems. Plant these in rich, well-drained soil in full sun among low shrubs or early-emerging perennials. **Bonus:** They make fine dried or cut flowers. **Zone 4.**
