Add texture and a touch of whimsy to your garden with Allium senescens 'Blue Eddy'. Known for its distinctive, spiraling blue-green foliage and unique spherical clusters of lavender-pink flowers, this compact perennial creates year-round interest with its architectural form. Whether used as an accent in borders or planted in groups for maximum impact, 'Blue Eddy' offers a charming, low-maintenance addition to any garden.
Why Choose 'Allium senescens 'Blue Eddy'?
- Comparison: Unlike the more traditional straight-leaved alliums, 'Blue Eddy' features twisted, spiraling foliage that adds a sculptural, dynamic element to the garden. Its unusual form and delicate lavender-pink flowers make it a standout choice among ornamental alliums.
- Companions: Pairs beautifully with other low-maintenance perennials like coneflowers, ornamental grasses, and sedums. It also works well in rock gardens or as part of a mixed border with other architectural plants like yucca or lavender.
Key Features:
- Twisting, Blue-Green Foliage: The narrow, spiraling leaves create a unique, architectural look that adds interest to the garden even when the plant is not in bloom.
- Lavender-Pink Flowers: Clusters of small lavender-pink flowers appear in mid-summer, providing a delicate contrast to the bold foliage.
- Compact Size: Grows to about 30–40 cm (12–16 inches) tall, making it an excellent choice for front-of-border planting or in containers.
- Pollinator-Friendly: The small flowers attract bees and butterflies, making 'Blue Eddy' an excellent addition to any pollinator-friendly garden.
- Low Maintenance: Thrives in well-drained soil and full sun, and is highly drought-tolerant once established, requiring minimal care throughout the growing season.
Specifications:
- Bloom Time: Mid-summer.
- Height: 30–40 cm | Spread: 25–30 cm.
- Hardiness: Zone 4.
Add unique, spiral-shaped foliage and delicate lavender-pink flowers to your garden with Allium senescens 'Blue Eddy', a compact and low-maintenance perennial that offers texture, color, and visual interest throughout the season.

Care Instructions
Different plants have different watering needs. Check the soil moisture by inserting your finger about an inch into the soil. If it feels dry, water the plant until the water drains from the bottom of the pot. Avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot.
