Last season trial variety - very popular!

We received such overwhelming, positive feedback about this variety from our trial last season that putting it in the range was a ‘no brainer’! A big ‘Thank You’ to all our customers who got in touch and gave us their views, we’re sure this will be a popular variety for many years to come.

At last a bunching onion (Allium fistulosum hybrid) with mildew tolerance! Extremely reliable and of uniform, upright growth, this non-bulbing type has dark green foliage and is an excellent 'green onion'
