(Ornamental Onion) It’s always fun when a ‘sport’ is found and that is the case with Allium ‘Serendipity’. A blue foliage Allium was found mixed in with Allium ‘Millenium’ a green foliage form, this resulted in an unexpected occurrence or “serendipity”. With all the great attributes that ‘Millenium’ boasts, ‘Serendipity’ features loads of 1.5-2 inch purple globe-shaped flowers on a 15-20 inch tall mounding blue-green clump. Mid to late-summer the flowers appear bringing with them the hum of pollinators and butterflies. The fragrant foliage smells like onions when crushed. Hardy in zones 4-8, Allium likes to be grown in full sun to part sun locations and is drought tolerant once established. Easy to grow and makes a nice cut flower, ‘Serendipity’ is a perfect selection for mass plantings as well as a garden border. Allium ‘Serendipity’ is a Proven Winners® Perennial.

Betty S –
This would be my 3rd year with this plant. I love it. Very little care and it blooms profusely. My question is whether it spreads on it’s own because I have what look like little plants coming up near it. Or maybe I just have to wait and see if they produce.
