Sturon Onion
$3.50/100 seeds
Allium cepa – (90 days) The best all purpose onion available. Sturon is a very flexible dual purpose onion which can be planted close for bunching onions, or spaced farther apart to form large storage onions. These globe shaped onions have the attractive appearance of a seed onion, but are much earlier maturing. Smooth brown skin with yellow flesh. Good resistance to bolting. Certified Organic.
Planting instructions: Sow from late spring. Sow thinly when the soil surface is dry and workable, ½" deep, 12" apart after raking. A rich firm, well–drained soil is required. Moderate water. Full sun.
Harvest information: As the leaves start to yellow, bend over the tops, leave for 14 days or so then lift & store when thoroughly ripened. Lift bulbs on a dry, sunny day and allow to dry off on the soil surface. Store fully ripened sound bulbs in nets or trays for use throughout the autumn and winter. Combine with fresh sage for a classic stuffing mixture.
