Allium - Little Sapphire

Allium ‘Little Sapphire’ is a charming ornamental onion featuring compact, grey-green foliage and elegant clusters of dark purple, globe-shaped blooms. Rising 12–15 in (30–38 cm) tall and matching in spread, it brightens late summer into early fall with nectar-rich flowers that are equally attractive in the garden or fresh/dried bouquets. Adaptable to full sun or light shade, this low-maintenance perennial thrives in well-drained soil, displaying resilience to drought and common pests. It’s deer- and rabbit-resistant, while drawing in bees and butterflies, making it a great pollinator-friendly addition.
