Nodding Pink Onion (Allium Cernuum) - Lovely in any garden or meadow, Nodding Pink Onion, can easily be grown from flower seeds. Allium Cernuum can typically be found on ledges, in dry meadows, gravel, rocky or wooded slopes. Nodding Pink Onion will produce delicate pink flowers in late spring and will bloom throughout the summer. Allium Cernuum is a wonderful addition to any naturalized setting.
This flower is distinctive and easy to identify with nodding, pink flowers. Nodding Onion is drought tolerant, and it survives in challenging sites where other plants refuse to live. Native to the United States, 12 - 18 inch Allium Cernuum thrives on rocky areas, dry woodlands, and prairie land that does not receive much water. Allium Cernuum seeds grow lovely plants among rockery, in the woodland popping up through Carex foliage, nestled up against a tree trunk, or in the sunny rock garden. Allium Cernuum readily reseeds itself and will regrow from its own flower seeds. If this is not desired, deadhead when the flowers fade so its flower seed is not dropped on the ground.
