Bobblehead Ornamental Onion

‘Bobblehead’ is a patented ornamental onion hybrid sold by Proven Winners, selected for upright, twisted blue-green foliage and large pale-lilac flower globes. The breeder lists mature plants at 30–32 inches tall and 20–24 inches wide, with summer flowers and upright foliage that remains attractive from spring to frost. ## Landscape Use and Seasonal Interest The rounded flower heads rise above the foliage and are followed by spherical seedheads. Use the clump in a sunny border, a container or a mass planting; the flowers also suit cutting. Proven Winners reports visits from bees and butterflies and resistance to deer and rabbits. ## Siting Plant in part sun to full sun in USDA zones 4–8. The breeder rates water needs as average and describes the plant as heat- and drought-tolerant. Its sturdy stems and upright habit make it useful where a strong vertical accent is wanted without a shrub-sized footprint. ## Maintenance Allow the flower heads to finish if seedhead interest is desired, or trim stems after flowering. The plant patent records the cultivar as *Allium hybrid* ‘Bobblehead’ and gives a grant date of May 13, 2025; this records the patent identifier and date only, not present legal status.
