Arundel Castle is delighted to announce that its Allium Extravaganza is returning this year.
Set to flower this May, thousands of long-stemmed alliums, termed the 'fireworks of gardening’, will adorn the castle's grounds, showcasing their vibrant pom-pom-shaped heads
The display will include varieties such as Purple Rain, Globemaster, Christophii, Hair and Art, and the castle’s English herbaceous borders will be infused with a kaleidoscope of coloursFlowerbeds of Mount Everest and Mont Blanc are set to harmonise with the White Garden of the Fitzalan Chapel
Arundel Castle's Head Gardener, Martin Duncan, commented:
“Our Allium Extravaganza is a truly spectacular sightWith the stunning Arundel Castle as a backdrop, it’s wonderful to see the grounds come alive with myriad pom-pom blooms in shades of purple, amethyst, and white, complemented by displays of white and blue Camassias
“Alliums are incredibly versatile and can thrive in various environments, from rock gardens to borders so it allows our gardening team to strategically plant them throughout the castle's magnificent gardens and groundsThis style of planting contributes not only to the visual appeal but also aligns with our wildlife-friendly ethos, as alliums act as 'bee magnets,' attracting pollinators such as bumblebees, honeybees, and butterfliesWhether our visitors are seasoned gardeners or not, it really is an unmissable spectacle for everyone.”
