Introduce a beautiful and early pop of color to your yard with the 'Oreophilum' Allium, also known as Pink Lily Leek. This low-growing ornamental onion creates a graceful display with loose umbels of starry, magenta-pink flowers that appear in late spring and early summer. Reaching a modest height of 8-12 inches, they are perfect for planting in rock gardens, along the front of a border, or in containers where you can appreciate their delicate beauty up close. This variety is well-suited for Zone 7 and 8 gardens and thrives in a location with full sun.

A fantastic feature of 'Oreophilum' Allium is that it is highly animal-resistant. Their natural scent makes them unappealing to deer and rabbits, so you can enjoy their beauty without worry. For a successful planting, use well-draining soil. Amend your native soil with Watters Premium Mulch and a handful of Bone Meal to create a healthy and supportive home for their roots. Once planted, a light application of Watters Humic and All Purpose Plant Food will provide the necessary nutrients for a spectacular show that returns faithfully each spring.
