Allium 'Windy City' 23W33 Hybrid Allium V2-
Allium 'Windy City' 23W33 Hybrid Allium V2- (2015) Hybrid Allium, Mature plant size: 20x30in., PURPLE, USDA Hardiness Zone 3-8, Michigan Bloom Week ISO WW31, In Garden Bed V2 for 106 DAYS (Romence). Planted in 2023.
Richard Hawke: Protruding white anthers add sparkle to the dark rose-purple umbels of ‘Windy City’, a standout feature of this 2015 introduction. The 2-inch starburst-like, mostly sterile flower heads open in early summer and put on a spectacular show for about six weeks. The glossy dark green foliage is particularly lush in the early season; leaf tips may yellow or brown in summer, although it was not too troubling. ‘Windy City’ has a uniform robust habit to 21 inches tall in bloom—while the leaves form a clump that is 10 inches tall and 30 inches wide.
