Allium fistulosum
ONION-LONG RED FLORENCE-TROPEA (SALE) In both looks and taste, this is a most attractive onion. Producing very long, spindle-shaped bulbs, about 15cm in length, a deep purple-red in color, it has a very mild and sweet flavor and is ideal for salads and pickling. A delicious Italian heirloom from Florence in Tuscany.
Sow sparingly to avoid thinning out; ideally allow 2cm between each seedling. Each seed should then produce a single well-shaped onion. Harvest when the foliage has fully died down. Store in a cool, dry place.

We as a company endeavor to provide to the public, Organic, Old Fashioned, Heritage, and Open-pollinated seeds that have not been genetically modified.
We purchased the business in November 2018 and renamed it to ABSeeds (All ‘Bout Seeds) to make the title shorter and represent what we hope to achieve with this business in the years ahead.
Seeds that we can’t grow ourselves we will acquire from people who grow for us, or we may purchase seeds from reputable heritage seed companies.
