About This

• Famous Italian Onion - Tropea Rossa Tonda Onion is a long day variety from the Calabria region of Italy with a yearly festival in its honor, the Sagra della Cipolla di Tropea. This heirloom is early maturing and best planted in early spring. Long day onions require 14-16 hours of sun to reach full size, so this is a good choice for a cooler growing zone.
• Sweet and Flavorful - Tropea Rossa Tonda Onions produce a generous harvest of deep red, globe-shaped onions that are completely white when harvested at baby stage, but mature to a lovely rose-red color. Their high sugar content makes the onions exceptionally sweet. - delicious when eaten fresh in for salads, or cooked by grilling, roasting, or caramelizing.
• Sustainable Living - Vegetable gardening is an essential foundation of a more self-sufficient lifestyle. Home grown fruits and vegetables are generally more flavorful and nutritious than store-bought. These onions store well in a root cellar, making them an ideal addition to your long term food supplies.
• Easy to Grow - Seeds are packed in a beautiful paper packet with instructions for successful growing and germination in your own home garden. Each package also has instructions for saving seeds after harvest. Getting started is simple for both beginner and experienced gardeners.
• Quality Seeds - Plant now or store for future growing seasons. These seeds will remain viable for years if stored in a cool dry location. Our safe, non-hybrid non-GMO heirloom seeds are always open-pollinated, naturally grown, untreated, and selected to ensure the best germination rates.
