Suggest a correction or write a new one!
Allium giganteum, also known as giant onion, is a species of onion native to central and southwestern Asia but grown in many countries as a flowering plant. It is the tallest Allium species commonly cultivated, reaching up to 1.5 meters in height. In the summer, it produces small purple globes followed by attractive fruiting umbels. A popular variety, 'Globemaster', has shorter height but larger deep violet umbels. Both varieties have received the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit. This species is found in Iran, Afghanistan, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan in nature, and can thrive in USDA hardiness zones 6-10 in the US. However, consuming any part of the plant can cause gastrointestinal discomfort due to the presence of sulfides.
