Upright, deep-green strap-like leaves are produced throughout spring and summer. When harvested, these emit their characteristic onion scent, making them an essential plant for kitchen gardeners. Star-shaped, light-purple flowers are produced in spherical clusters throughout the summer months. These are a magnet for bees and other pollinators, and add an ornamental element.
