Description

Onion ‘Ruby Red’ is a versatile red onion that can be harvested young as pink-flushed spring onions or left to mature into full-size bulbs with burgundy skin and red flesh. Harvested mature bulbs will store for 5-6 months. Onion ‘Ruby Red’ produces sweet, mild onions that are perfect for salads and which maintain their striking colour even when cooked. Height: 30cm (12in). Spread: 5cm (2in).

Companion planting: Try growing onions with mint to confuse and deter onion fly.

Sowing
Spring onions will grow in any good fertile soil provided it is well drained. Sow seeds from late winter to summer at 3 weekly intervals. For an early spring crop sow seeds in autumn and over winter. Sow thinly 6mm (0.25in) deep in drills 15cm (6in) apart.

No thinning is required. Harvesting can usually start 6-8 weeks after sowing.

More Info

Keep well watered.

Thompson & Morgan strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3
