Plant these space-saving vegetables in your sunny Vegetable and Kitchen Gardens, but the bulbs are small enough to grow in containers and raised beds if you are an apartment dweller or running out of garden space! Poor drainage areas are no problem - simply create a berm or plant in a raised planter!

Create evenly spaced rows and keep them well-watered throughout the growing season. Long-day Onions need 14-15 hours of daylight to trigger bulb formation, so ensure you have a full sun area. Once the tops begin to yellow or turn brown and dry, it's time to harvest! Get ready for long-storing Onions and Onion braids in your future!

#ProPlantTips for Care:

A long-day Onion, Red Comred Onions do well in different environments. All you need is well-drained soil and full sun. Plant the Red Onion in a full sun location as this is their ideal location to be happy and grow to their fullest. Water your onions regularly. This will ensure consistent moisture so the onion doesn't dry out. Be sure to not overwater. You can always use your finger to see if the soil is dry or not. Put your finger in the soil near the onion. If it's dry, give it a little soak for the day!

You can plant your Onions in early spring once the ground isn't frozen. However, Nature Hills has a general rule: If we ship it, you can plant it! We ship at the proper planting time for your hardiness zone.

Onions are ready for harvest as soon as their foliage withers. Locate the Onions beneath the dried foliage, then gently pry them out with a spade or spading fork. Pull the plants from the ground and allow them to sit on top of the soil for a few days to dry the roots. Tie the tops together to store them.

Onions can be stored for several months in a cool, dry place like a basement or garage, just ensure they have plenty of ventilation.
