Summer Drummer Allium
The Allium Summer Drummer is a stunning perennial plant characterised by its impressive globular clusters of rich purple flowers with white tips that bloom in mid-to-late summer. Standing tall at heights of 150cm, its slender, sturdy stems rise gracefully, adorned with slender, strap-like green leaves that create a lush, vibrant backdrop. Each spherical blossom is composed of numerous tiny, star-shaped florets that attract pollinators, such as bees and butterflies, thereby enhancing the garden’s ecosystem. The combination of its striking colour and distinctive shape makes the Allium Summer Drummer an eye-catching focal point, offering not just beauty but also an inviting habitat for wildlife amidst the verdant landscape.
