Allium cepa

Rockin' storage onion with hot flavor and superb keeping qualities.

This storage onion with small, tight necks and thick brown skin is a superb keeper bred for organic conditions by Dr. Alan Kapular. Seed saver Helen Brookman has kept them through an Idaho summer in her garage! How's THAT for storage quality! It is a wonderful open-pollinated alternative to the hybrid Copra. 

Seeds grown by Swift River Farm in Salmon, Idaho.

Directions: Start indoors in late winter. Plant seeds ¼“ deep and ¼“ apart in a single pot. Trim edible tops with scissors down to 2" to thicken bulbs. Transplant in mid-spring, 3" apart & 1" deep. Or direct seed in August in areas with a mild winter.
