Magnificent magenta interior rings make this an especially gorgeous red onion. Tight bulbs of 8 cm to 10 cm in diameter that store very well. Rich colour and flavour!
Green Thumb
Cultural practices : onion seeds should be sown indoors in February.
Soil : they need rich and fertile soil (mineral or organic soil). It should be kept moist but not wet.
Spacing : the row spacing is 35 cm to 38 cm. For larger bulbs, thin out plants to 7cm to 8cm. The removed plants are delicious in salads.
Growing tips : it is recommended to add fertilizer at the start of the crop and again when the bulbs start to swell.
Harvest : harvest the onions when the leaves droop, turn brown and dry out. Drying can be speeded up by folding a few leaves. Once, harvest, put the onions in a dry, warm and well ventilated place. They keep in a cool, dry room.
