For October’s Plant of the Month, You Garden are introducing Allium ‘Pink Jewel’.
‘Pink Jewel’ brings a fresh, romantic pink you rarely see in large-flowered alliums, and it does it with style.
Each neat globe is crammed with starry florets that open from late spring into early summer, sitting proudly on strong, upright stems up to 80cm tall.
The true-pink shade plays beautifully with cottage favourites and modern plantings alike. Pop the bulbs among hardy geraniums, roses or ornamental grasses and you will get a rhythm of bobbing globes that pull the whole border together. In containers, it gives quick impact and a clean, structured look without fuss.
Plant once and you will enjoy a display that returns every year. Bees and butterflies adore the nectar-rich flowers, so your early summer show also brings life into the garden. Cut a few stems and you will see why florists rate it. Those tight heads last well in a vase and keep their fresh, sparkling look.
Good drainage and a sunny spot is the secret to success. The bulbs settle in quickly, then get on with the job while you enjoy the results.
Imagine May and June with soft rose-pink globes hovering above your planting, neighbours asking what it is, and you smiling because you chose the latest favourite. That is the magic of ‘Pink Jewel’ in real gardens.

Don’t miss out on compost!
Twin pack 40L professional compost handy size with free delivery worth £6.99! *
Simply the best compost available to the gardener today!
This is a bespoke professional mix made to our exacting recipe from one of Europe’s leading blenders. It contains 50 per cent composted wood fibre, to open the mix up and get air in to the roots, and a precise blend of three different grades of peats to balance drainage and water holding. With added Lime, it is pH balanced to give the optimum growing conditions and with starter fertiliser and a wetting agent, to ensure even water distribution in pots and container, it will get your plants off to a head-start.
On top of that it contains a six-month controlled release fertiliser – meaning whatever you grow will get a slow and steady stream of nutrients for six months.
Under no circumstances should this compost be confused with cheap bags of low-grade black peats at DIY stores – you will feel the light and fluffy difference yourself and notice the difference in plant growth quickly. Perfect for pots, baskets and planters for growing any plants.
*You Garden offers free delivery on this compost (but if you add other items to your order then this may include a postage surcharge as they will need to be sent separately).
