Allium - Pinball Wizard - Distinctive Palmate Leaf Shape - Bulbs - Large Pack - 10 pcs

Allium Pinball Wizard stands out for its striking, spherical purple blooms that bring a bold, modern look to any garden. As these flower heads appear from late May to June, they add a vivid, dynamic accent just as most other garden bulbs are finishing their display. The unique form and intense colour of this variety create an eye-catching feature, whether planted in borders or as part of contemporary planting schemes.

Planting Time

Plant Pinball Wizard bulbs in autumn, ideally from September to October. This timing allows the bulbs to establish strong roots before winter, ensuring healthy shoots in spring.

Planting Depth

Set the bulbs at a depth of 10-15 cm. This depth protects them from frost and provides stability for the tall stems as they develop.

Spacing

Leave 20-25 cm between each bulb. Adequate spacing ensures each plant has room to grow, resulting in well-developed flower heads and a balanced display.

Height

Allium Pinball Wizard reaches 80-100 cm in height. Its upright stems and dense, globe-shaped blooms make a strong statement both at the front and middle of borders. This height also pairs well with ornamental grasses and delicate perennials.

Flowering Time

Flowering occurs from May to June, providing a vibrant burst of purple when most other perennial bulbs have finished. The blooms last for several weeks, adding lasting colour and structure to the garden during early summer.

Hardiness & Overwintering

These bulbs are fully hardy and require no lifting for winter. They tolerate cold conditions well, making them a reliable choice for low-maintenance planting bulbs in mixed borders.

Uses

Pinball Wizard is versatile - ideal for borders, mixed with grasses, along fences or walls, and beneath deciduous trees. The bulbs can also be grown in containers for patios or balconies. The flowers are suitable for cutting and for dried arrangements. Their nectar-rich blooms attract bees, butterflies and other pollinators, supporting garden biodiversity. This makes them an excellent choice for those seeking bulbs for gardens that combine ornamental value with ecological benefits.
