Allium Mount Everest
What a magnificent sight – a cluster of hundreds white, star-shaped flowers that form a massive flower ball! Allium Mount Everest is amazingly tall and grows at least 1 meter above all other flowers in the garden. The maximum height of this sturdy flower can reach up to 40+ inch(125 cm) in length and it is one of the tallest members of the allium family. This allium is named after the highest mountain in the world – Mount Everest, due to its massive height and show-white flowers.
Allium belongs to the same family as garlic and onion, that is why it’s called an “ornamental onion”. Make sure to plant your allium in a dry and well-drained (sandy) soil and open areas with full sun.

- For the distance between the bulbs, make sure it is 2 times the diameter of the bulbs.
- Plant the flower bulbs in the hole with the pointed side facing up or with the root base facing down.
- Cover the allium bulbs with soil and water them well.
