Onion R. Herald
British breeding brings us this high-quality red onion variety with a more uniform shape, darker red skin and longer storage potential than ’Red Baron’. An added bonus is its excellent resistance to bolting. ’Red Herald’ will suit those who like a red onion with a strong distinctive taste.
Sowing Info
Sow seed indoors in individual pots or a seed tray at a depth of 6mm (1/4in) using free-draining, seed-sowing compost. Place in a propagator or seal container inside a polythene bag at a temperature of 15-20°C (59-68°F) until after germination which usually takes 10-12 days. Once germinated, grow on at 10-15°C (50-59°F) until all risk of frost has passed and plants are large enough to plant outdoors at a distance of 10cm (4in) apart. Cover with a protective netting or fleece to prevent attack from birds and insects. Water thoroughly after planting and as bulbs swell.
Growing Info
Alternatively, sow outdoors mid March to mid April thinly at a depth of 1cm (1/2in) and a distance of 30cm (12in) between rows.
