Alliums are a beautiful plant to have in your garden. I often think of them as a natural firework as the flowering display explodes in an array of tiny star-shaped blooms. Allium flowers in spring through summer in the UK, and is a popular plant to search for in Google. So, I've found and answered the most searched questions for you.
