Description

Add something truly unique to your garden with Allium 'Mediterranean Bells', a distinctive variety that produces clusters of graceful, bell-shaped flowers in soft shades of rosy purple and green. Unlike the classic globe-shaped alliums, these nodding blooms create an elegant, natural look that brings movement, texture, and charm to garden beds and borders. Blooming in late spring to early summer, Mediterranean Bells stands tall on sturdy stems and combines beautifully with perennials, ornamental grasses, and other flowering bulbs. Its nectar-rich flowers are a favorite of bees and butterflies, while deer and rabbits tend to pass it by, making it an easy and reliable addition to the landscape.

Excellent for cut flower arrangements, this eye-catching allium offers lasting beauty both in the garden and indoors. Its unusual flowers and architectural form make it a conversation piece wherever it's planted. With its charming bell-shaped blooms and exceptional garden presence, Allium 'Mediterranean Bells' brings a touch of Mediterranean-inspired elegance to any sunny landscape.

Planting Advice

Allium require full sun for the best blooms
Well drained soil is a must for allium bulbs
In heavy, clay and poorly drained soils amend the soil prior to planting. Amend your existing soil by incorporating a combination of top soil, compost, manure, and leaf mold.
Fertilize at planting with Hi Yield Bulb Food or for organic gardening use Bulb-Tone. Apply fertilizer at least 3” below the bottom of the bulbs so that the roots will get the most benefit from the fertilizer.
Plant allium bulbs 4-6” deep, with the old roots of the bulb touching the earth, the pointed end should be facing the sky.
Spacing will vary based on variety, refer to the Allium packaging for specifics. Plant allium in clusters or space throughout the garden for a neat geometric design element.
Immediately after planting, water the allium planting area. This helps to eliminate air pockets. After the initial planting bulbs do not require additional watering in fall or winter and prefer to be kept dry.
Apply a 2” layer of mulch in late fall.

Interesting flowers, but bad plant form

Cons:

These bloomed in the first spring. The flowers are nice but the stems and leaves flop all over the ground! The stems flop for a foot and then go up in the air for a foot to the bloom. I saw some in the nearby botanical garden and they had the same poor plant form. None of the leaves stand up.

Mediterranean Bells - nice size

Cons:

I have never grown these before, so not sure exactly what size these should be, but they were in good shape, a little bit of mold on some, but as I ordered these late in the season, it is to be expected. I planted them immediately and will have to wait until next year to see how they fare. I am confident they will grow just fine.
