Allium ‘Millenium’ is a stunning perennial plant that was named Perennial Plant of the Year in 2018 by the Perennial Plant Association. It features eye-catching rose-purple globe-shaped blooms on slender stems above dark green strappy leaves, making it perfect for neat garden edges. This plant blooms in late summer and attracts bees and butterflies, making it a pollinator magnet. ‘Millenium’ Allium is heat and drought-tolerant, making it low-maintenance and ideal for gardeners who want bursts of color.
To grow ‘Millenium’ Allium along garden borders, plant bulbs in the fall before the ground freezes. They do best in full sun but can benefit from some afternoon shade in hotter regions. The plants will form larger clumps over time, and should be divided every three or four years if they become too large or crowded. Remove spent foliage and flower heads to prevent self-seeding. ‘Millenium’ Allium is rabbit and deer resistant due to its onion-like aroma and taste, making it a great addition to garden edges and borders to protect other bulbs from pests.
