This ornamental onion is prized for its clump forming habit of twisted, blue-green leaves, pale purple flower heads that appear in the heat of the summer, and its tendency to be easy to care for. 'Bubble Bath' was also selected for its earlier bloom time and larger flower heads. It can tolerate different soil types and various water needs, as well as take the heat and humidity. An added bonus is that it is deer and rabbit resistant and does well as a cut flower. Attracts butterflies and pollinators too.
