Small Yellow Onion
Ornamental Yellow Onion - Allium flavum.
Perennial, reaching a height of 30 cm. Yellow flowers appear in June-July on stems covered with a bluish bloom.
Since the aerial part dies off after flowering, it is better to plant it with taller plants that will quickly close the resulting void.
Possessing an exquisite and unobtrusive beauty, it looks great among rose bushes.
Origin: Southern Europe, Caucasus, Western Asia (dry and rocky slopes).
The habitus of Allium flavum is similar to the growth of Allium carinatum ssp. pulchellum, but with more blue-green foliage. Long flowering period.
Natural flowering period: May - August
Winter hardiness zones: Z3 - Z9.
Distance between plants: 10 cm.
Soil requirements: dry.
Usage: for rock garden, for cutting.
