Description: These are Egyptian Onions often called Winter Onions by our pioneer ancestors as they were one of the first edible produce in the spring. You receive 14 planter sets similar to those shown in the first picture. I also like to keep some in the kitchen for snipping off while cooking. I like to keep a small pot of them handy while cooking and call these "Kitchen Nippers". I like to trim the and use the greens for various dishes, they will grow back in a short time. Easy to grow indoors or outdoors, they are winter hardy to zone 2. If you are limited for space or have a large area to plant, they will do the trick. Just plant, water and mother nature will do the rest. One of my favorite ways to use these is grill them with a little salt, pepper and olive oil. They are hard to beat that way,very tasty! ! Please note the garden claw to get an idea of what they can achieve for size. They do not get a large head but more like the size of a leek or shallot when mature. These are great for those seeking to recreate the "pioneer" garden of yesteryear. They can go in the ground anytime if your soil is workable. *** Summer is here these sets want to grow and may have sprouted. In some cases they may have roots. If they do not have roots started they will do that when planted. The main thing is always plant ASAP **** Free US shipping. Sorry no international sales.
