Allium cepa
These gorgeous, long-keeping hotties will steal your heart!
The rosy pink bulbs on this stunning Italian heirloom are heart-shaped! Superb flavored, with a hint of hot spice—they make exceptional, beautifully-pink pickled onions. Narrow necks make them excellent storage onions, staying firm without bolting for 6-8 months after harvest. Long day onion perfect for northern latitude growing. A truly unique and must-grow variety!
