The best thing to do is give the seeds to friends and neighbours - share the love. That's how I got my spring blooming aliums. Great video Laura. My fav garden are the ones around the coop and the wooden pathway.
So pretty in your cottage garden. That’s my favorite area with the pallet walkways. Added to my list for next year. Didn’t realize these were perennials and grown from a plant instead of a bulb. I plan to let them naturalize. Won’t that be glorious. Love these every time I see them in your garden. Thanks much for focusing on them.
This is a nice surprise ! Ready for bed , nice to watch beautiful things before night prayers 😇 . These are gorgeous ! I like these better than spring ones.
Hi Laura, thank you so your show such enjoyable also I learn a few ideas from you especially tonight I never seen this Serendipity Allium until now 🌹♥️🤗
I’ve been watching long enough to tell the difference between Russel and Cheddar and that was Cheddar. Plus I’m a crazed cat person😂 thank you Laura and Aaron
I saw these in my local nursery today and thought Of you and your cottage garden. I’ve always wanted to have a formal garden but I find more and more as I smash together all of my favorite plants, it’s very cottage like 😂 I love that I was able to see how these bloom for you before taking the plunge
Laura! You are a young girl! I admire your talent and hard work! Your creations are beautiful !!! I took a lot of ideas for myself !!!! I wish you creative inspiration, best wishes to you and your family !!! It's so good that a few years ago I saw you on TH-cam !!!
When “dead heading” - can you just pull off the dead flowers or should you be using shears and cutting in a specific way? Love ALL your videos. Thank you for generously sharing your beautiful garden(s) and knowledge with us!
Awesome! I need that plant-type of allium for summer blooming in my side garden which has a lot of spring flowers, but not much for summer. Also, shout out to Cheddar for gracing us with his presence before nap time. 😘🐈 "Do you need to go lay an egg?" Need to remember that for kiddos that are potty training or need "chill-out space" for their grumpy times. 🥚🤔 LOL! Have a great weekend! Christine in forest fire-ville CO 🔥🌲🔥 All my best to the Hot Shots fire fighters. We appreciate you!
This was super helpful. I didn’t know the difference between these and alliums for bloom time. Or that these could spread. I love these more in depth information videos about specific plants. It really helps me to learn and the knowledge sticks with me more than if I read a plant tag or information online.
Does this plant need to be pruned all the way to the ground for the next year? Also, what about fertilizer? Does this plant need any to thrive in your landscape? SO pretty!!
I was curious, too, so I hit up Google! Found "Fertilizing: Not required. If more rapid growth is desired, apply a rose or all purpose garden fertilizer in early spring" and "Maintenance & pruning: Pruning is not required." Also "This selection has not been known to reseed and is not invasive. It may be propagated in fall by digging it up and dividing the rhizome with the bulblets attached." I'm guessing the reseeding issue is common with allium, but evidently not this variety. I'm allergic to eating onion, but Laura has convinced me I *MUST* have a lot of them! LOL They're such a striking contrast with the other softer forms of flowers and shrubs, especially since I don't particularly like grasses.

Planted 6 of these in the quart size this spring and they are flowering like crazy. Loving the grassy, blue, upright foliage. I have a very formal, patterned garden so I'll be deadheading - thanks for that tip!
@@ltt8441 yes they do. Unlike bulb alliums which produce one large stem and flower, these remain short and produce several. This year each plant has 5-10 flowers, I'm sure that will increase as they mature and get more established.
I never knew about allium until i saw them on your channel and they're just too lovely. I wonder if they'll do well in our hot and humid climate though. Living in a tropical country, I don't think I've ever seen anyone plant it.
Yay! A video for us 3rd shifters! I really need to get these alliums and let them spread all around my bushes that the darn voles like to munch on! I've heard they don't like them. That is really neat that they're not bulbs... never knew that! Thanks!
I love the fact that are gardens are in sinc even though I’m here on the north shore of Long Island> My Allium are in bloom and was wondering if I can take those spent flower heads and drop them into another part of garden to naturalize them there?? Would I need to plant the heads or just leave them on the surface of the bed? Thanks for making my “Covid Garden “ the best on the block !!
THEY ARE SO PRETTY 😍 I wonder if I could find them in my area, zone 9b???? I would love some in my yard. Too funny 🤣 when you asked your chicken if she needed to lay an egg!! Did you get the new chickens 🐔? Thank you for sharing. I hope you're all doing well.
They’re stunning!!! Ha! Look at Russell photo bombing 😊 I’ve had no lunch growing these in north texas! Allium envy here!!! How many alliums are planted there you think? And who thumbs down 👎 on a gorgeous plant like this? Sheesh.
I love the allium. The color is purple in the shade and such a pink tint in the full sun. Your chicken coop area is one of my favorites. Gorgeous. Have a great weekend. God bless. 👏🏻💕👏🏻
Very interesting to watch this plant matured, its started out like little small onions on top, in a bend shape, then slowly and slowly evolve into beautiful blooms
I love this plant!.... I bought one a couple years ago. I must say very hardy. I agree the foliage is so pretty, and also bug resistant it seems. Recently, I was looking for some Stella D’Oro Day Lillies to plant behind my shed just to dress it up a bit, and decided on this instead because I know the foliage is so pretty even till they bloom. I know the Stellas start to look a little tired after blooming, and need more attention.
Love the alliums in this vid. Tried the regular ones and after a year they stopped coming up. Never say never! Thanks for a late summer blooming idea. My friends and I share things we’ve found on your site. Really enjoy them. Thanks
I used to plant in my garden the white bottoms of store-bought spring onions after I’d eaten the green tops. The green parts grew back which I snipped off for cooking. I'd forgotten about them. Then late in summer they transformed into flowering alliums.
My husband and I took a little trip for our anniversary, and these were planted at a place we went to! I got so excited because I've only ever had the bigger ones. Took a hot minute to Google and find the correct name haha. Thanks for this video!!
Thank you for the video on these I have millennium in my garden but always wondered the difference guess I will have to get some serendipity too i love all alliums for their whimsical purple balls they always remind me of Dr Seuss
Thanks Laura for another great video. I tried this allium for the first time this year. I was so excited when I found it at the nursery. I couldn't believe how well it bloomed in the heat of summer and just kept producing. I do have trouble with bunnies eating my coneflowers. I'm going to try planting them together this spring
Beautiful plant in their structure and form. From the flowers to the foliage. Besides "crushing the leaves" that gives off the onion scent, do the flowers emit the same fragrance? Anyone care for a bit of Cheddar? I'm so happy to see you giving him some attention. More subtle that Russell.
Perfect timing once again. I just took photos of my beds to help me plan for next yr. I knew I had to plant something to bloom in August! Serendipity it is!!
Hi Laura! I LOVE those 'Serendipity' Allium! I need to find some of them. I like the other ones, too, but prefer the shorter variety. If I can find them, I hope they do well in pots! It's good seeing more of Cheddar! Thank you so much for sharing!
Oh dear--one more plant to spend my money on--have NOT seen this one at all! Thought allium were ALL bulbs! Very good information! BTW--love the kitty and his casual appearance to be loved. Too cute!
thank you in advance for video and the presentation of serendipity allium that I never heard and knows about🙏it’s such a beauty. But did I heard right? These grows from roots? Not bulbs? Anyway I will looking and get them. Greetings from Germany
Ok so I know the Globemaster is from bulbs and these are seeds. What do you do to both when they done please? These you mentioned cutting back, and bulb ones? I am in South Africa and because of you I finally managed to get the bulbs (do NOT ask how!), which I planted and they are growing so nicely, but looking ahead to once they done
early morning is a time of day that chickens do lay eggs, but they will also sing. the noise they are making isnt bothering your viewers.
I actually like the chicken sound! More please hahaha
Let's play spot Russel!! What a sweetie, he's such a comical little sidekick, I love his appearances :)
I watch for him as well.....so cute
I think that's Cheddar :) Lovely cameo nonetheless.
Her kitties are so sweet and cuteeee😻
That's Cheddar, no extra toes : )
Yes, that was Cheddar!
And Cheddar pops in for a visit. I'm definitely adding Serendipity Alliums to my garden!
Omg your kitty popping up in the fence at the beginning was the best
The best thing to do is give the seeds to friends and neighbours - share the love. That's how I got my spring blooming aliums.

0:44 Cheddar cameo 🤭
Love the Serendipity! Thanks for showing them off! 💜
STUNNING!!! What an amazing dramatic impact they give to the flower bed. ❤️❤️
0:43 I spy a chedder 😹 we should start a where's Waldo series with these two 😺😺
Wow Laura, I want you to know you have been my inspiration. Always the best to you, Aaron, Benjamin & your family. Take care♡♡♡♡
Hi Laura, thank you so your show such enjoyable also I learn a few ideas from you especially tonight I never seen this Serendipity Allium until now 🌹♥️🤗

Finally they are blooming!!! When are you going to show us the new chickens? You bought some new ones, right???
Laura! You are a young girl! I admire your talent and hard work! Your creations are beautiful !!! I took a lot of ideas for myself !!!! I wish you creative inspiration, best wishes to you and your family !!! It's so good that a few years ago I saw you on TH-cam !!!
Thanks, I love bonus episodes! 🌼🌸⚘
Wwhhhhhaaaattt a video friday night?? The perfect end to my day.
When “dead heading” - can you just pull off the dead flowers or should you be using shears and cutting in a specific way? Love ALL your videos. Thank you for generously sharing your beautiful garden(s) and knowledge with us!
I would cut the whole flower stalk off to make a nice clean cut.
@@bluesky7226 Definitely... agree!
I absolutely love mine!! I have them by my pond! Planted them last year and the have double this year❤️❤️
I love these alliums. They remind me of the clover on Horton Hears a Who.😁

Sounds like the perfect plant-no fuss.

Does one plant produce more than one flower? Thanks

Hello Laura🌸you’re such inspiration girl💕love your channel! Beautiful garden❤️I watch you every day and you keep me going 😊
They are beautiful
I remember watching this like it was yesterday
I have the Millennium allium blooming in my garden right now. Just planted it this spring and it's beautiful! 🌿
That walkway looks so vibrant. Great combinations all around.
I always like when Russell just pops up any where. He is amazing.
Gorgeous allium
Love that they naturalize!
I love their color!
Such a pretty bloom. 💕🌸💕🌺💕🌼💕
They are absolutely beautiful
I never knew about allium until i saw them on your channel and they're just too lovely. I wonder if they'll do well in our hot and humid climate though. Living in a tropical country, I don't think I've ever seen anyone plant it.

I am definitely going to plant these in my flowerbed in my front yard below my dining room window. They will be beautiful.
I love the fact that are gardens are in sinc even though I’m here on the north shore of Long Island> My Allium are in bloom and was wondering if I can take those spent flower heads and drop them into another part of garden to naturalize them there??
Would I need to plant the heads or just leave them on the surface of the bed? Thanks for making my “Covid Garden “ the best on the block !!
Love the contrast between the fading and the fresh. I love all alliums. And the chicken coop area is my absolute favorite. 🐓
I LOOOOVE those Alliums 💜
We got PW Spring Onions - they look like these but smaller - and they bloomed all summer. Highly recommended!
One of my favorite things in our garden. All week ours have been covered in butterflies. ❤️
THEY ARE SO PRETTY 😍 I wonder if I could find them in my area, zone 9b???? I would love some in my yard. Too funny 🤣 when you asked your chicken if she needed to lay an egg!! Did you get the new chickens 🐔? Thank you for sharing. I hope you're all doing well.

That's Cheddar. Always look at the paws. Russell's polydactyl. Cheddar isn't.
Jake Jones aww! I was on my phone and didn’t see. Nice catch
The grass at the back of alliums makes gorgeous combination 👌
also I love purple 💜
The cottage garden is my favorite!!
Your understanding and use of plants is so amazing!
I love the allium. The color is purple in the shade and such a pink tint in the full sun. Your chicken coop area is one of my favorites. Gorgeous. Have a great weekend. God bless. 👏🏻💕👏🏻
I see that Cheddar is the one photo bombing today!🤗😘💕😸
He has been very attached to Laura lately that's why he's been appearing more in vids.I think he like the preggy hormones that Laura gives off..
So pretty. Love the look.
I love this pocket of your garden. The cottage garden. I’ve been wanting to see those roses in bloom.
Very interesting to watch this plant matured, its started out like little small onions on top, in a bend shape, then slowly and slowly evolve into beautiful blooms
So beautiful
I love the way they look in that garden. What a show. Thanks Laura. Great info👍
I love those!!!
Bonus video. 😍 Its saturday here in India and I am so happy for this surprise video. Great start of a lockdown weekend 😄
Cats 🐈 always have a cameo in all your videos!
I planted this in my garden this year, Laura and I have truly enjoyed them! Thank you for this video and bringing us so much joy!
I love alliums. They have a Dr Seuss vibe about them. I wish they grew in z9. Thanks for letting us enjoy yours.
Beautiful flowers thanks for sharing .
These are beautiful! Thank you for sharing.
I love this plant!.... I bought one a couple years ago. I must say very hardy. I agree the foliage is so pretty, and also bug resistant it seems.

Love these informative plant highlights. Thanks.
I bought two last week. I love alliums and when I found this plant I was just inlove.
Just purchased a few ,thanks for sharing this video Laura looking forward to enjoying their beauty,stay safe❤
You're my to go gardener every time I have questions. I love your garden!!
Love the alliums in this vid. Tried the regular ones and after a year they stopped coming up. Never say never! Thanks for a late summer blooming idea. My friends and I share things we’ve found on your site. Really enjoy them. Thanks
Definitely on my list of plants going in my garden! I just love them!
I got a good laugh this morning when you said need to go lay an egg❤️❤️ love those flowers, will get me some . Have a nice day 🌺🌺
So glad I watch your video, then went to home depot and bought some..Love it the plants
Those alliums are elegant and gorgeous! I hope to grow alliums myself one day.
Those are so pretty. Love the shape, color and height.
I used to plant in my garden the white bottoms of store-bought spring onions after I’d eaten the green tops. The green parts grew back which I snipped off for cooking. I'd forgotten about them. Then late in summer they transformed into flowering alliums.
Love them. Thank you so very much for sharing.🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Thank you for explaining the difference in spring and summer blooming alliums. I have been wondering
My husband and I took a little trip for our anniversary, and these were planted at a place we went to! I got so excited because I've only ever had the bigger ones. Took a hot minute to Google and find the correct name haha. Thanks for this video!!
They are gorgeous! 😎
Thank you for the video on these I have millennium in my garden but always wondered the difference guess I will have to get some serendipity too i love all alliums for their whimsical purple balls they always remind me of Dr Seuss
The globemaster alliums definitely look like something out of Whoville, that's for sure.
Thanks Laura for another great video. I tried this allium for the first time this year. I was so excited when I found it at the nursery. I couldn't believe how well it bloomed in the heat of summer and just kept producing. I do have trouble with bunnies eating my coneflowers. I'm going to try planting them together this spring
I love it! This is my favorite part of your garden. I love hearing my chickens. Please let us hear yours🥰
They look beautiful. Glad they're deer resistant. Are they from PW?
💗🌻💗🌻

Love the alliums. Such a beautiful addition to the garden.
Omgosh that pop of colour!!
Thank you so much I always like to learn new flowers to feed my bees🍯🐝❤
This allium has been quite lovely in my flower bed.
I have always grown alliums from bulb.I will look into how to grow them from a root.Thanks for the idea.
Hi Laura! I LOVE those 'Serendipity' Allium! I need to find some of them. I like the other ones, too, but prefer the shorter variety. If I can find them, I hope they do well in pots! It's good seeing more of Cheddar! Thank you so much for sharing!
Would these be good for planting around a mailbox? I just had my mailbox replaced and am looking for some carefree plants to make maintenance easier.
Beautiful!
Love when you do videos of specific plants, thanks.
These are gorgeous, hopefully I can find them in Australia
How beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
Oh dear--one more plant to spend my money on--have NOT seen this one at all! Thought allium were ALL bulbs! Very good information! BTW--love the kitty and his casual appearance to be loved. Too cute!
