Approximate Seed Count: 150Long Day - Shallots are a mix between garlic and onion. They provide a delicious mild flavor with much more sugar than onions or garlic. Shallots are able to be grown in many soil conditions and many climates. They can be overwintered in the soil to harvest the following year as multiple smaller shallots similar to how garlic grows, or grown by seed and harvested the first year much like an onion. Highly prized by chefs for their delicate flavor and bringing top dollar at farmers' markets.
I love these Shallots, They have great flavor, easy to grow.
I grow them in my greenstalk but this year, i am growing them in that and pots. brought my greenstalk in the house last year and had fresh shallots all winter. Awesome. :) "pots should be easier".. :)
Save me lots of money, they are so expensive in the store $4.99 a lbs. :0 !!! do the math if ONLY 1/2 come to harvest (which i have had great germ rates) and each .25 lb. that is somewhere around $100 in shallots for $2. they freeze, dehydrate or keep them in a pot in your kitchen. a WIN WIN<:)
Starts easy , growing in my hydroponics
Everything arrived in great condition and we are excited to see what we can grow!
These grew well for me in Ohio. They didn't get super big for me but they have kept very well in storage. Will be growing again this year with more fertilizer hoping for a bigger yield!
Great size, flavor and harvest size. Easy to grow.
I gave one to my partner last summer... he said, "WHY DOES THIS TASTE LIKE CHAMPAGNE??"
This variety will be in my garden until I can no longer garden!
I just planted them and they look beautiful so far
Excellent Germination!
One of my favorite things to grow is spinach, I grow mostly in containers so I like to try and get as much as possible out of my small garden. This variety definitely does that. I get massive leaves and fill up a gallon sized ziplock bag relatively quickly every week when the harvest begins.
Germination went very well, popped up within a few days. Growing well!
