DESCRIPTION: Allium ‘Red Mohican’ 🌾 is one of the most distinctive and eye-catching ornamental onions you can grow. Its uniqueness lies in its unusual, crest-shaped flower head that gives it a bold, sculptural look — a shape that earned it the name “Mohican.” Unlike the more symmetrical, spherical alliums, ‘Red Mohican’ produces a pointed, ovoid inflorescence in a rich, dark wine-red tone with purplish-amaranth shades, dramatically topped by a small white crest — a tuft of sterile flowers that sits asymmetrically at the very top like a plume. The effect is striking, and the flower stands out beautifully in any setting, whether formal or naturalistic. The inflorescence measures about 10–12 cm tall and 5–7 cm wide, making it slightly more slender than other popular varieties. Blooming usually begins in June 🌸, offering a late-season burst of colour when many spring bulbs have already faded. The plant reaches a height of around 80 to 100 cm, supported by a strong and upright stem that resists wind well 🌬️, making it a great choice for exposed borders or open landscapes. ‘Red Mohican’ thrives in full sun ☀️, though it can handle partial shade as long as the soil is well-drained. Like most alliums, it does not tolerate waterlogged ground, so planting in sandy or gritty soil is recommended. While it can technically be grown from seed, germination is slow and inconsistent, which is why planting bulbs in autumn — ideally between September and November — is the most reliable method. The strap-shaped leaves are light green and tend to fade or yellow around flowering time, a typical trait among alliums. Because of its structural form and bold colouring, Allium ‘Red Mohican’ makes a wonderful focal point in perennial beds and gravel gardens, and its late bloom time helps bridge the gap between spring and summer displays. It also performs beautifully in cut flower arrangements, fresh or dried, adding a dramatic, modern touch. Its impressive presence, resilience, and originality make it a favourite among garden designers and anyone looking to introduce a touch of the unexpected 🌟.

STRIKING FEATURES: Allium ‘Red Mohican’ features a striking ovoid, pointed bloom in deep wine red with purplish tones, crowned by a unique white crest. The flower head measures 10–12 cm tall, while the strong, upright stem grows up to 100 cm. Light green, strap-shaped leaves often yellow during flowering. Bold and ornamental, it stands out in any garden.

HOW TO GROW: Allium ‘Red Mohican’ thrives in full sun, but also tolerates partial shade if the soil is well-drained. It prefers light, sandy or chalky soil and dislikes excess moisture, so planting on slightly raised ground or with added sand helps prevent rot. Bulbs are best planted in autumn, from September to November, about 15cm deep and spaced 20–25cm apart. Flowering begins in June and lasts 2 to 3 weeks, making it a later bloomer among alliums. Exceptionally hardy, it can withstand temperatures as low as –20°C, returning year after year.

USAGE: Perfect for those seeking an original and architectural accent in the garden, Allium ‘Red Mohican’ pairs beautifully with ornamental grasses such as Pennisetum and Stipa, as well as with perennials like Salvia nemorosa, Nepeta, and Achillea. It also complements earlier-flowering alliums like ‘Purple Sensation’ or ‘Globemaster’, creating dynamic, layered planting schemes. Excellent for cut flower arrangements, it is remarkably long-lasting, and its unique appearance makes it ideal for modern or dried bouquets.
