Description:
With long tendrils spiralling madly from small round flowerheads, Allium vineale 'Dready' is definitely not your traditional allium! The centres of the flowerheads are purple and the tendrils start out green, but gradually mature to red. A fantastic plant in every sense of the word, Allium 'Dready' is a great way to add a dash of the unexpected to your borders, and is also very popular as a cut flower.
