Think growing onions is too much trouble? Think again! Grow from bulb and never fuss around with spindly transplants again. Also known as a multiplier or potato onion, the Red Sun shallot is as easy to grow as it is delicious. With a taste that's flavourful but not overly sulfurous, use shallots to add a little French flair to your cooking, or grow in bulk and substitute anywhere you'd use an onion. With storage life surpassing the hardiest storage onion, and multiple bulbs harvested for each one planted, you can save some of your harvest to replant in the fall or spring and expand your supply year after year.

Please read our growing instructions before purchasing to determine what bulb size is best for you!
