With its iconic globe-shaped blooms with clusters of small flowers, the allium can be seen growing in gardens and parks throughout late spring and into early summertime across the UK. Perfect for pollinators, this flower carries the symbolic meaning of good fortune, grace and patience. Each different colour holds a significant meaning, from purple alliums that represent royalty and respect to white alliums that symbolise purity and innocence or sympathy and condolences. Whatever colour you choose to crochet your TOFT allium with, you can be sure that it will look great on display whatever the occasion.
