Wholesale alliums, also known as Ornamental Onions, are distinctive cut flowers with globe-shaped flower heads made of tiny star-like florets. They are loved for their sculptural shape and are particularly useful in modern, garden-style and seasonal arrangements. 

Alliums are available in several sizes and forms, from large round purple heads, from large round purple heads to smaller drumstick varieties. Alliums are a firm favourite with landscape gardeners and flower arrangers due to their strong shape, making them ideal for adding structure and interest without overwhelming a flower composition.
