About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
One of the most reliable onion sets of all, with round, evenly sized bulbs, firm golden brown skins and very good keeping quality well into winter. Sturon hardly ever bolts and delivers a dependable harvest even in mixed summers. Plant the sets from the end of March into loose, sunny soil. A tough choice if you value a long lasting store.
Full and savoury with balanced pungency, the solid all rounder for the kitchen and the pantry.
