Alliums are my go to bulb for the post tulip gap. Another perennial are the poppies but these can reseed a bit too much for many gardeners. The Alliums come in deep purple and white and the distinctive blooms are globe shaped. They are members of the onion family so most rodents and pests leave the bulbs alone. Keep growing, Marianne Binetti
