Red Onion 'Rossa di Milano'
Rossa di Milano is a stunning, deep red Italian heirloom with broad shoulders, tapering down to a narrow root. One we're really excited to bring to UK gardeners. A reliable variety to grow from seed, we sow in February and harvest in late summer. A brilliant storage variety - worth a try if you're after lovely sweet red onions which keep all winter.
Sow in March - 3-5 seeds per modules a la Charles Dowding. Harvest fresh and you can use the stems too. Later harvests have a more pungent flavour. Dry the bulbs out after harvest and they'll keep until December.
- Sow: multi-sow 3-5 seeds per module for bulbs or clusters of 10 for spring onions, March undercover
- Plant: 20cm spacing between modules
- Harvest: July-August
- Kitchen: Pairs with everything. Use raw or cooked in a myriad of dishes.
Allium cepa
