Fothergill's Spring Onion Ishikura Seeds

Details:

• Botanical Name: Allium fistulosum, a robust and authentic non-bulbing salad onion.
• Long White Stalks: Produces beautifully elongated, thick white shafts that remain incredibly tender, crisp, and succulent.
• Subtle, Mild Flavour: Delivers a delicate, fresh onion taste with little to no harsh pungency, making it ideal for raw eating, salads, and light summer dishes.
• Zero-Waste Culinary Versatility: The entire plant is usable; both the crisp white stalks and the hollow green leaves add excellent texture and flavour to stir-fries, soups, and garnishes.
• Space-Saving Layouts: Grows with a strict, vertical habit that allows the plants to be grown close together, maximizing your total yield in small veg patches, raised beds, or patio planters.
• Continuous Harvesting: Designed for high-quality, early-season harvesting and successive sowings, ensuring a steady supply of fresh stalks over many months.

Care Instructions:

• Sow seeds directly outdoors in shallow drills 1.5cm deep into finely prepared, fertile soil from early spring onwards.
• Sow thinly and close together if space is limited, or space rows 15cm apart to allow for easy weeding and rapid development.
• Water the crop consistently during dry summer periods to keep the stalks growing rapidly, preserving their tender texture and mild crunch.
