Buy Allium Sphaerocephalon Wholesale in Dubai | Gulf Flowers
Allium Sphaerocephalon is a striking purple allium known for its elongated, cone-shaped flower heads and rich violet tones. Grown in the Netherlands and Spain, it is available in lengths of 55–80 cm, making it a versatile addition to both contemporary and traditional floral arrangements. Its unique shape and vivid color provide a sculptural quality, adding movement and texture to any bouquet.
Characteristics of Allium Sphaerocephalon
Unlike spherical alliums, Sphaerocephalon develops slender, tapered flower spikes that gradually open from the base to the tip. The deep purple hue intensifies as the flowers mature, creating a dynamic gradient effect. The firm stems ensure that the flower maintains an upright stance, making it perfect for tall arrangements and floral installations.
Floral Applications
Allium Sphaerocephalon is ideal for creating dramatic vertical accents, mixed bouquets, or minimalist designs. Its rich color pairs beautifully with greens, whites, and softer pastel flowers, while its elongated form brings an element of architectural interest. This allium works well both as a focal flower and as a complementary accent in layered arrangements.
Care Guidelines
Trim the stems at a 45-degree angle and place them in fresh, clean water. Keep the flowers in a cool environment (4–8°C) and change the water every two days to preserve their color and form. Avoid direct sunlight and excessive heat, as these can shorten the vase life.
Allium Sphaerocephalon combines elegance, drama, and versatility, making it a remarkable choice for sophisticated floral designs.
