Description
Common Name:Â Ornamental Onion
Millenium forms a compact, upright clump of glossy green, thick and strappy leaves which emit a slight smell of onion when crushed. In late summer, a profusion of large 2”, bright rosy purple, tightly rounded clusters of flowers appear on strong stems just above the attractive foliage.
Butterflies and honeybees adore the flowers’ sweet nectar but deer and rabbits steer clear of this perennial.
