Pinball Wizard Allium lights up the garden with floral fireworks! Densely packed violet flowers stand on sturdy green stems and highlight the colors of the late spring to summer garden. Beloved by pollinators and avoided by browsing deer and rabbits, 'Pinball Wizard' is an easy-to-grow solution for colorful impact. (Allium)
To determine if a plant is sufficiently cold hardy, the USDA created numbered zones indicating winter low
temperatures; the lower the zone number the colder the winter.
If the coldest winter temperature expected in your area is -15°F (zone 5) then any plants rated zones 3-5 will
survive the winter temperatures in your area.
If you live in very warm winter areas (zones 9-11) plants with zones 3-4 ratings are not recommended. The lack
of freezing winter temperatures do not provide a time for winter dormancy (rest).
20-24" tall x 12" wide. Pinball Wizard Allium
sports lush spheres of rich purple blooms. Plant them in well-drained,
compost-enriched soil in a full sun to light shade location. They will grow up
between other perennials and as they die back the perennials hide the wilting
foliage. Plant with Delphinium, Oriental Poppies, Iris, and Ornamental Grasses
for great effect. Some gardeners intentionally interplant Allium amongst Roses,
Peonies, and other perennials, as they have antifungal properties that may help
the neighboring plants. At a height of 20-24" 'Pinball Wizard' makes a
dramatic focal point when planted in a group, or scattered through the garden
for eye-catching blooms that illuminate the whole garden. Great as cut flowers,
or let them dry in the sun and continue to add texture all year long. A
drought-tolerant pollinator favorite.
