Buy Bobblehead Ornamental Onion online. If you've enjoyed the ease and beauty of Serendipity Ornamental Onion, then 'Bobblehead' is the next perennial you will want to check out! Bobblehead Ornamental Onion supersizes 'Serendipity' as a much larger, robust plant, with bigger blooms, an earlier bloom time, and a lighter flower color. Globe-like 3-3½" pale lilac flowers appear in midsummer; persisting for many weeks before leaving behind perfectly spherical seedheads. Foliage is glaucous blue-green with a twist to each individual leaf. If the foliage is bruised or the clump cut into, the plant will give off a strong onion smell, translating into high deer and rabbit resistance. 'Bobblehead' has good heat and drought tolerance and is capable of surviving in a wide variety of soils.
Family: Amaryllidaceae · Common Name: Ornamental Onion
