I was told I'd never get onions to grow from seed, last years sets failed for me, but these seeds have done wonderfully I'm runnign out of space to plant them. I can't wait to see the end results

Red Baron I have grown for 5 years on my allotment. They never bolt and last well into the winter months. Great flavour and a firm favourite of mine.

One of my favourites. I grow them every year. They are unlikely to bolt even under difficult conditions. They store well especially if incorporated into onion strings and stored in a cool shed or garage.
