Onion Bunching - White Sweet Spanish
The Onion Bunching White Sweet Spanish, 'Allium fistulosum', has delicate stems and juicy sweet tops that onion lovers can't resist. Bunching onions prefer light well drained soil and with lots of organic matter. The White Sweet Spanish Valencia also forms a small, globe-shaped white onion. Bunching onion varieties such as this one can produce small or no onion bulbs but are milder, juicier, and sweeter tasting scallions than scallions of regular, full size bulbing onions. It is very important to keep onions weeded. They should be kept evenly moist and not allowed to dry out. Scallions are generally chopped and eaten fresh. A scallion is an onion harvested before it has the chance to bulb. In mild climates they can be planted in summer for fall use and in the fall for spring use. Scallions can be harvested any time during the growing season before they begin to bulb. The Bunching White Sweet Spanish onion should be planted in the early spring as soon as the soil can be worked. ... more info
Cabbage - Discovery In warm climates, plant in the fall for winter harvest. Harvest the heads after they firm up and are solid when squeezed. Plant in the spring, 3 to 4 weeks before the last frost for summer harvest. They are much better than the grocery store cabbage. The Cabbage Discovery, 'Brassica oleracea (Hybrid)', is so tasty and so sweet that Discovery is the only cabbage a national food chain will use. Discovery Cabbage prefers rich, moist, well drained soil with lots of organic matter. These compact 7 to 8 inch round heads will fit in any nook or cranny your garden might offer. Discovery is easy to grow and is a great container variety. Discovery is an early to mid-sason variety. |
