Why some shipping routes differ

Live plants are pickup only June 1–September 30. Plugs and potted plants cannot use our shipping path to AZ, CA, HI, ID, NV, OR, UT, or WA; pickup may remain available. Soil-free bare root plants may ship to those states during March 1–May 31 when all remaining rules pass. Montana plug and potted-plant arrivals must be October 1–May 31.

We choose neem oil and lower-impact plant care instead of routinely drenching our greenhouse with lab-manufactured pesticides. We are exploring a screened growing house that may expand future shipping options.

Bare root arrives dormant

Expect new growth in about 6 weeks after planting. Until then it can look lifeless, so you won’t be able to tell within 24 hours of arrival whether it will grow.

About the Product

All the Buzz is a compact summer-blooming ornamental onion covered in rosy purple, globe-shaped flower clusters in late summer and early fall. It blooms about two weeks earlier than similar types and has a pinker tone of purple.

At 14 to 18 inches tall, it fits the front of a border, rock gardens and containers. Bees and butterflies swarm the flowers for nectar, while deer and rabbits avoid the onion-scented foliage. It is easy to grow, drought tolerant, and the leaves stay neat through the season.

What it looks like

Dense, rounded flower clusters about 2 inches across made of many tiny starry florets in rosy purple with a pink cast, held on slender, straight green stems just above the foliage. Leaves are narrow, glossy, grassy, medium green straps forming a neat, dense tuft. The plant is a compact, rounded clump 14 to 18 inches tall and 16 to 20 inches wide. At peak bloom it is dotted all over with rosy purple balls, often with bees on them.

Growing it with lavender

All the Buzz loves the same sunny, lean, well-drained ground as lavender, and its rosy purple globes pick up where lavender leaves off, blooming in late summer at the front of the planting.

Care

Grow in full sun to part shade in lean to average, well-drained soil; it handles drought once established. Hardy in USDA zones 4-8. Trim off any tired foliage in fall or early spring; clumps can be divided in spring every few years.

When it arrives

Your bare-root plant

You'll get a cluster of small, slender bulbs joined at the base, with stringy roots and maybe cut-back leaves. Soak roots 30 minutes, then plant right away, bulbs just below the surface. Keep cool and slightly moist if you must wait a few days.

Expect new growth in about 6 weeks after planting. Bare root ships March–May while dormant, with little or no top growth, and it can look lifeless until then. That’s normal. Grassy green tufts come up in mid-spring (April in Michigan). Flower stems follow in early summer and bloom July to September depending on variety. Foliage that yellows a bit in late fall is normal.

You won’t be able to tell within 24 hours of arrival whether a dormant plant will grow.

When to plant

Spring or early fall, at least 6 weeks before the ground freezes.

How deep

Set the clump so the tops of the small bulbs sit just below the soil surface and the leaf bases are at soil level. Spread the roots downward; don't bury the foliage.

Spacing

12–18 inches apart for most; larger types up to 24 inches.

Soil

Sandy, loam or gravelly; clay if amended · pH 6.0–7.5

Fix-it tip: Wet soil rots the bulbs. In clay, work in compost and plant on a slight mound or in a raised bed so water never sits around the clump.

Sun

Full sun (tolerates light part shade).

Less than 6 hours of sun gives floppier foliage and fewer, smaller flower globes.

Don’t give up on it
