Onion Bunching Italian Red Seed
Allium - cepa
$1.79

Item #0147

This lovely Italian onion with excellent, strong flavor and attractive, dark red skin is commonly used in Italy for Pinzimonio, a colorful mixture of raw vegetables served with a separate bowl of olive oil and salt. It can also be used in almost any dish requiring onions. Though it looks like a bunching onion and is often listed as one (as on our current packet), it is actually an intermediate day onion that makes a small, but plump bulb that will grow in most areas of the United States.

When to plant outside: As early in spring as soil can be worked. Note: Cold temperatures will cause some of the onions to bolt early.

When to start inside: RECOMMENDED. 8-12 weeks before last frost. The earlier the start, the bigger/earlier the bulb is produced.
