Nodding Onion (Allium cernuum) is a charming native wildflower known for its graceful, nodding clusters of soft pink to pale lavender flowers. Blooming in mid to late summer, the delicate umbels hang from gently arching stems, giving the plant its distinctive name. The nectar-rich blooms attract a wide range of pollinators including native bees, bumblebees, butterflies, and beneficial insects. The slender, onion-scented foliage adds fine texture to garden plantings and naturalized areas. Nodding Onion adapts well to a variety of soils and forms small clumps over time. This easy-to-grow native brings subtle beauty and valuable pollinator support to sunny gardens.
