How to Grow:
Start seeds indoors 8–12 weeks before your planting date or sow directly outdoors in early spring in full sun. Transplant seedlings into loose, well-drained soil, spacing according to whether the variety forms bulbs or bunching stalks. Keep soil consistently moist and weed-free to encourage healthy growth. Harvest bunching onions as needed, and lift bulb varieties when tops fall over. Cure storage onions thoroughly before placing them in a cool, dry location.

Harvest & Use:
Slice Ruby Red or Tropea Rossa Tonda for fresh dishes, grill Ailsa Craig for sweet caramelization, and save Yellow Sweet Spanish for long-term winter storage. Use Tokyo Long White for quick meals, and enjoy White Grano in everyday cooking.
