The First Choice of Prize Winning Gardeners & Lovers of Real Food
My AccountThe first hybrid onion to be offered as a set. Produces a more rounded shaped bulb than Red Baron, which has long been the standard variety of heat treated red onion set.
In addition, excellent internal flesh quality and a very good skin means that it can be stored for a longer period.
It also has a deeper stronger flavour.

Grew well and very easily in the spring drought. Will be growing again
I can highly recommend heat prepared Onions, I had very few failures and non bolted, lovely flavor too.
Planted out at the end of March (into an exposed Pennine garden), and are growing well; the foliage is tall, and the bulbs are 6-7cm across (July). There were about 120 sets in the bag (only advertised as 100), which was nice, and only a handful haven't come up. They've coped well with the year's strange weather, and I'm looking forward to lifting them.

August is primarily about harvesting your crops, but there are still some vegetables that can be sown and planted out!
