Martagon Lily and Allium Bulb Collection
Martagon Lily and Allium Bulb Collection
With an elegant silhouette and impact to rival the Eiffel Tower, these are three of my must-haves.
First comes Allium ‘Purple Sensation’, followed a couple of weeks later by Allium ‘Magic’, and then the exquisite Turk’s cap Lily ‘Claude Shride’.
A winning combination for pollinators. Before planting the bulbs, add plenty of grit to improve drainage on heavy soils.
This collection contains:
- 6 bulbs each of Lilium 'Claude Shride' (Martagon)
- 6 bulbs each of Allium 'Magic'
- 15 bulbs each of Allium 'Purple Sensation'
-
Lilium 'Claude Shride' (Martagon)£13.952 options available -
Allium schubertii 'Magic'£5.952 options available -
Allium hollandicum 'Purple Sensation'£8.954 options available

how deep do allium bulbs need to be planted?
As a general rule, make sure the hole is at least twice the depth of the bulb, and leave a gap of at least 3 times the bulb width between each bulb.
-
are alliums perennial?
Yes, alliums are perennial bulbs and will return each spring. They should in fact form clumps, and spread each year so they’re hugely rewarding and excellent value.
-
how do you dry alliums?
Pick fading seedheads and leave them somewhere cool and dry for a few months, such as a shed or cellar. I love to dry my seedheads and then spray paint them silver to use as Christmas decorations.
-
do alliums grow in shade?
Most alliums need full sun to grow strong and flower well. Nectaroscordum siculum (Allium bulgaricum) will take some shade.
-
can I divide alliums?
Over a few years, allium bulbs can clump up by producing offsets, and a drift of alliums can become congested. When this happens, thin them out. When they have finished flowering, lift and divide them. Replant bulbs elsewhere in the garden, or share with a friend.
