Description
Ishikura Scallion is an excellent Welsh Onion. Can be grown in annual style rows or as perennial clumps. Pungently flavored scallions that you can depend on almost all year long once you get them established. Mild and Bright green onion flavor.
Perennial, organic, open-pollinated, heirloom, cold hardy, bunching onion. Suitable for growing in greenhouses, garden plots, raised beds, and containers.
The White Ishikura has received the RHS Award of Garden Merit. It is a favorite for winter harvesting. This Japanese-type bunching onion develops long white-ended stalks lacking bulbs. While it is a perennial, it is most often grown as an annual or biennial. These bunching onions are also known as Welsh onions, meaning ‘foreign’ when introduced to Europe in the Middle Ages.
There are many plants or sets per pot!
To grow as annuals – split up the pot of seedlings into individual sets and plant 2-3 inches apart.
To grow as perennials – don’t split up the pot – simply lift the whole clump of sets into the spot you want them to grow permanently.
This season, we are also offering Classic Chives as a mini flat or “clump”
