D.T. Brown Onion Californian Red

Botanical Name: Allium cepa

Red onions add colour as well as flavour to cooked dishes and especially to salads. Under the blood red skin the white flesh is mild but full of flavour. Onions like a fine rich soil and an open sunny position.

We hope you enjoy these vegetable seeds, just another great example of vegetable seeds from Mr Fothergill’s!
