Award-winning onion collection
Essential ingredients in many savoury dishes, the cultivars in this collection have all been awarded the prestigious Award of Garden Merit after being assessed by a panel of judges at the RHS.
How to care for Award-winning onion collection:
Plant onion sets from mid-February to March, 15cm (6in) apart in rows 30cm (12in) apart. Lift the onions when they are mature and allow them to dry before using. Store the fully ripened, sound bulbs in nets or trays and you can use them throughout the autumn and winter.
What's included:
Each collection will contain the following:
- 25 x onion 'Red Baron': A mid-late maturing variety with flattish-round bulbs of a beautiful dark red colour. An excellent cropper producing attractive, firm well flavoured bulbs which keep well. An attractive addition in the salad bowl.
- 50 x onion 'Sturon': 'Sturon' is a flavourful variety which produces round, straw-coloured onions that mature in August. It is a good cropper with high yields and it also keeps well.
- 50 x onion 'Stuttgarter': An old favourite, with characteristically firm, semi- flat onions that store very well. Its flesh has a milder and sweeter flavour than many of the others.
