If you love Alliums, this is the new variety for you! Get flowering displays into summer, not just spring, with Allium 'Millenium'. All the charm, but in months rarely ventured into by other Alliums!
Rather than producing rose-purple sphere flowers in late May, like most others, this beauty flowers repeatedly under the summer sun. Dramatic and oh-so notable, giving you Allium performances when you least expect them!
Totally hardy and easy to grow, just plant in a sun-drenched spot of your garden where it can drink up the sunshine. What's more, 'Millenium' boasts an excellent disease resistance.
Alliums are prized summer garden additions, largely due to how drawing they are to beneficial insects, such as butterflies and bees, with this variety being labelled by the RHS as a ‘Plant for Pollinators’.
Slender stems, each around 40-50cm tall, rise from glossy green foliage, and are topped with pom-pom-like clusters of star-shaped flowers.
Supplied as a set of five bare roots, ready to plant.

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.
Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.
We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.
Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.
Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.
Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
