Onion Seeds – Red Long of Tropea

Description

Allium cepa

HEIRLOOM. Red Long of Tropea is a well-loved heirloom from the South of Italy that produces elongated, purple-red bulbs with excellent sweet flavor. They are also sometimes called “torpedo” onions because of their distinctive pointed shape. The bulbs are not known for their storage quality and are usually used fresh, though they can keep for up to 6 months in ideal storage conditions. This is an intermediate day variety, meaning it is a good choice for growers throughout much of the US, except for the far South. (35-48° N)
