Fothergill's Spring Onion Evergreen Bunching Seeds

Details:

• Botanical Name: Allium fistulosum, a traditional, hardy bunching onion variety.
• Crispy, Non-Bulbing Habit: Produces beautifully straight, long white shafts that do not swell into traditional bulbs, ensuring the stems remain tender and easy to slice.
• Mild and Sweet Flavour: Offers a delicate, mild onion flavor that is perfect for eating raw in fresh summer salads or tossing into quick, high-heat stir-fries.
• Superb Winter Hardiness: Incredibly robust and winter-hardy, allowing you to confidently leave the crop standing in the ground for fresh picking during autumn and winter.
• Clean Green & White Contrast: Features pristine white bases transitioning into upright, hollow green tops that add vibrant colour and texture to culinary dishes.

Care Instructions:

• Sow seeds directly outdoors in shallow drills 1.5cm deep into finely prepared, well-drained soil from spring through to early autumn.
• Keep rows spaced roughly 15cm to 20cm apart to allow plenty of room for weeding, maintenance, and easy harvesting.
• Water the crops regularly during dry, hot spells to prevent the stems from turning woody and to maintain their sweet, mild crunch.
