Overview

Giant-sized flowerheads (to 30cm across) create a starburst-like effect, which tops the compact stems of this ornamental onion in summer. These heads are excellent for adding to both fresh and dried floral arrangements, and look particularly effective when they are sprayed with silver or gold (after being dried) and used as Christmas decorations. Keep in mind that it is quite normal for the strap-shaped foliage to die back before the flowers start to emerge.
