In 2023, I purchased the long day sampler. It included walla walla, ring master & redwing varieties. The variation of storage time was what drew me to choose this sampler! (1 month for the walla walla variety, 4 months for the ring master variety & 8-10 months for the redwing variety). I still have at least a dozen in the cellar as of February 2024.

They were easy to grow and very low maintenance!

I found the starts easy to separate and identify, mostly because this sampler has a red variety, yellow variety & white variety.

I first harvested every other plant at a green onion stage because I planted a little too close together. At full harvest we had onions anywhere from 3” to 6”!

They worked out so well I Just placed my order for 2024!

I’ve had a crop of them for two years. They take much longer to mature than what is suggested. I plant them in March and pull them out in early October. The tops get huge and die and fall over. I still leave the bulbs in the ground. Then I dig them up before the first frost.

They have lasted me til March with firm and not soggy flesh–and maybe would’ve last longer but who knows as we ate them all. Stored in a bushel basket inside in 60s temperature.

If they get enough water they get huge. Very happy with them.
