Nodding Onion gets its name from its pom-pom shaped flower that droops towards the ground when in bloom. It is easily recognized by the distinctive arch at the top of the stem. The flower clusters attract a range of pollinators, but especially bees. Nodding Onion is easy to grow, very hardy and is deer resistant due to its strong smell when crushed.
