A favorite, I'm so pleased to have found seed for this special fresh summer onion. Superlative for salads and sandwiches--I can remember my parents waiting for these to come into season. When they finally appeared in local markets, we would have a barbecue and eat them on hamburgers. These days, chefs are grilling the onions themselves, as well as braising them. Easy to grow, easy to slice, beautiful rosy color, and great sweet-tangy flavor. Another plus is that these grow above the ground, so are helpful if you have rocks, heavy soil, gopher problems, and so on. Last years crops was variable. This year we have reselected seed 150 seeds
