Arundel Castle is delighted to announce that its much-anticipated Allium Extravaganza is returning this May, transforming its historic gardens into a breathtaking sea of vibrant, pom-pom-shaped blooms

Visitors will be treated to a floral spectacle as thousands of alliums burst into colour, painting the castle grounds with hues of purple, amethyst, and whiteThis year's display will feature striking varieties such as Purple Rain, Globemaster, Christophii, Hair, and Art woven into the castle's herbaceous borders

Flowerbeds of Mount Everest and Mont Blanc alliums will then perfectly complement the beauty of the White Garden surrounding the Fitzalan Chapel
Martin Duncan, Head Gardener at Arundel Castle, commented:

"After our world-renowned Tulip Festival in April, the Allium Extravaganza is one of the highlights of our gardening calendarWith the castle as a dramatic backdrop, these exquisite blooms create a truly mesmerising displayAlliums are not only visually stunning but also play a key role in supporting wildlife, attracting pollinators such as bees and butterfliesWe also have over 12,000 Camassia that are due to flower in May too, so whether you're a keen gardener or simply appreciate nature's beauty, this is an event not to be missed."

Beyond the floral wonder, visitors can explore Arundel Castle's rich history and architectural grandeurHome to the Dukes of Norfolk for over 900 years, the castle is one of England's longest-inhabited country houses, boasting impressive medieval and Gothic architecture alongside an extensive fine art collection
