Ailsa Craig Onion - Firefly Farm & MercantileHeirloom Garden Favorites for Your Homestead Elevate your onion harvest with the legendary Ailsa Craig Onion—a true giant among heirlooms, prized by gardeners and exhibitors alike. Perfect for fresh eating, cooking, or entering at the county fair! "The Ailsa Craig onion... has produced bulbs weighing over twelve pounds."– The Garden magazine, 1905 (UK Horticultural Society records) Overview The Ailsa Craig is a massive, globe-shaped yellow onion renowned for its sweet, mild flavor that shines raw in salads or caramelized in dishes. Bulbs typically reach 4-6 inches in diameterand weigh 1-2 pounds each, with thin, papery skins and firm, white flesh that stores exceptionally well for months in cool, dry conditions. This variety matures in 110-120 days from seed, yielding abundant crops in fertile soil. It's resistant to bolting and pink root disease, making it reliable for home gardens. Expect a harvest of show-worthy onions that outsize standard varieties! This variety is grown for fresh eating and short term storage. Origin and History Named after the rugged Ailsa Craig island off Scotland's Ayrshire coast—a granite rock known as "Paddy's Milestone" for Irish immigrants—these onions trace their roots to Lanarkshire, Scotland, around 1880. Selected by David Murray, a market gardener, the strain was first exhibited in 1887 and quickly gained fame at British horticultural shows. By the early 1900s, it crossed the Atlantic, becoming a staple in North American seed catalogs. Today, it's preserved as a pure heirloom by organizations like Seed Savers Exchange, celebrated for producing record-breaking giants (over 10 pounds in competitions!). "Ailsa Craig onions are the aristocrats of the onion world—sweet enough to eat like apples." – Historic gardening lore How to Plant Ailsa Craig thrives in full sun (6-8 hours daily) and well-drained, fertile soilwith a pH of 6.0-7.0. Amend with compost for best results. Start Seeds Indoors (recommended for largest bulbs): Sow 8-10 weeks before last frost in trays at 70-75°F. Keep soil moist; thin to strongest seedlings. Transplant Outdoors: After danger of frost, space seedlings 4-6 inches apartin rows 12 inches apart. Plant 1-2 inches deep, with tips just above soil. Direct Sow Option: In zones 5+, sow in early spring, ½ inch deep, thinning to final spacing. Care Tips: Water consistently (1 inch/week); mulch to retain moisture. Fertilize with balanced organic feed every 3-4 weeks. Weed diligently—onions compete poorly. Harvest: When tops yellow and fall over (late summer), gently lift bulbs. Cure in a warm, dry spot for 2 weeks, then store at 32-40°F. Order Now for Spring Planting! Grow the giants at Firefly Farm & Mercantile—your source for heritage seeds since 2019. Questions?

Ailsa Craig Onion, Long Day 1887 Hierloom

Seedsaver's Exchange 100 Seeds

Firefly Farm 100 Seeds

Firefly Farm 250 Seeds

🧅 Red Baron Onion The Royal Standard of Red Onions If you are looking for the perfect red onion that balances beauty, flavor, and reliability, look no further than the Red Baron. This celebrated European heirloom is the "all-rounder" of the onion world. Famous for its intense, deep-crimson skin and a flavor that is bold but not overpowering, Red Baron is unique because its rich red color penetrates deep into the inner rings—not just the outer skin. Whether harvested young as a vibrant "spring onion" or allowed to mature into a hard, globe-shaped bulb, it is a masterpiece of garden utility. 📜 Historical Heritage & Origin The Red Baron is a classic European selection, rooted in the traditional red globe onions that have been grown across the United Kingdom and Northern Europe for centuries. While red onions were often considered "specialty" crops in the 1800s compared to the high-yielding yellow storage types, European gardeners specifically bred the Red Baron lineage to be tougher and more versatile. It was developed to solve a common problem with red onions: bolting (going to seed prematurely). By selecting for a slower, more deliberate growth habit, breeders created a variety that could withstand the erratic springs of Northern Europe. Over the last century, it has become the most popular red onion in the UK and a "must-have" for heirloom gardeners worldwide who want a red onion that actually stores well through the winter. 📖 Early Catalog "Snippets" While "Red Baron" stabilized as the specific trade name we know today in the mid-20th century, its ancestors were listed in the 19th century under names like "The Blood Red Globe" or "Dark Red Dutch." Here are snippets from the era that describe the traits that would eventually be perfected in the Red Baron: 1. Thompson & Morgan (London, Late 1800s) "A most excellent variety... the flesh is white, shaded with deep red, and is of a remarkably mild and pleasant flavor. It is one of the best for keeping." 2. Suttons & Sons (Reading, UK - early 20th century) "Deep blood-red skin... the color is not merely on the surface but extends well into the bulb. Remarkable for its symmetry and firmness." 3. Peter Henderson & Co. (New York, 1890s - referring to the European Red Globe type) "These Red Globes are of a much deeper and darker red than the older varieties... they are very handsome in appearance and possess the best keeping qualities of any red onion yet produced." ✨ Product Highlights True Red Rings: The color doesn't wash out when cooked and stays vibrant in raw salads. Dual-Harvest: Can be planted closely and harvested at 60 days as a "scallion" or spaced out and harvested at 110 days as a 3-inch bulb. Excellent Keeper: Unlike many red onions which rot quickly, Red Baron has a strong skin that allows it to store for 4–5 months. Bolt Resistant: Specifically bred to handle temperature fluctuations in the spring without flowering early. 🛠️ Quick Growth Profile Feature Specifications Plant Type Annual (Heirloom) Onion Type Long-Day (Best for Mid-to-Northern Latitudes) Days to Maturity 60 (Scallion) / 110–115 (Bulb) Sun Requirement Full Sun (8+ hours) Storage Potential High for a red onion 🌱 How to Grow Red Baron Onions 1. Sowing: Indoors: Start seeds 10–12 weeks before the last frost. Sow in flats and keep the tops trimmed to 3 inches to encourage strong roots. Outdoors: Sow as soon as the soil can be worked in the spring. Sow 1/4 inch deep. 2. Spacing: For Scallions: Space seeds 1 inch apart. For Large Bulbs: Thin seedlings to 4 inches apart. 3. Soil & Feed:Onions are "heavy feeders." Amend your soil with plenty of compost. They prefer a pH between 6.0 and 7.0. Because they have shallow roots, consistent weeding is vital—don't let weeds steal their nutrients! 4. Harvesting:Harvest for bulbs when the green tops turn yellow and fall over. Pull the bulbs and let them cure (dry) in a shaded, airy spot for 2–3 weeks before cutting the tops off for storage. 🥗 Culinary Note Because of its mild but distinct flavor, Red Baron is the premier choice for pickling. When sliced and put in a vinegar brine, the deep red color bleeds into the liquid, creating a stunning pink jar of gourmet pickled onions. Garden Tip: If you have a short growing season, Red Baron is an excellent choice because it begins to bulb reliably even when the summer hasn't been particularly long or hot. ❄️🧅

Long Red Florence Onion

🧅 New York Early Onion: The Northeast’s Heirloom Gold The New York Early Onion is the definitive "utility player" for the Northern garden. If you want the reliability of a high-yielding storage onion but don't want to wait until the very end of the season to harvest, this is your variety. Selected for its speed and its ability to thrive in the rich "muck soils" of the Northeast, it remains one of the most popular yellow onions for heirloom enthusiasts today. 📜 History & Heritage: The Muck Land Classic The New York Early has a deep connection to the history of American commercial gardening: Ancestry: This variety was selected from the Early Yellow Globe family of onions, which was a staple in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The "Muck" Adaptation: It was specifically refined in the famous "Black Dirt" or muck land regions of New York (such as Orange County). These fertile, peat-rich soils required an onion that could germinate quickly in cold spring mud and bulb up before the heat of summer peaked. A Proven Heirloom: It is an open-pollinated variety, prized for its uniformity and consistency—traits that made it a favorite for market gardeners supplying New York City's bustling produce stalls a century ago. ✨ Key Features Early Maturity: Lives up to its name by reaching maturity 10–14 days earlier than most other yellow storage onions. Superior Storage: Unlike many "early" vegetables that must be eaten immediately, the New York Early has excellent "keeping" qualities. It features tight, multi-layered skins that protect the bulb for months. Cold Hardiness: Bred for the Northeast, this variety is exceptionally vigorous in cool, damp spring weather. Reliable Shape: Produces beautiful, medium-sized, globe-shaped bulbs with a stunning bronze-yellow outer skin. 🥗 Flavor & Kitchen Profile This is a "classic" onion—it brings the punch and pungency that home cooks crave for building deep flavors in savory dishes. Attribute Description Bulb Shape Uniform Globe Skin Color Bright Bronze / Golden-Yellow Flesh Color Creamy White with Crisp Rings Flavor Profile Pungent, zesty, and savory Storage Life 4 to 6 months in cool, dry conditions 🍴 Culinary Inspiration The New York Early is a kitchen workhorse. Its high sulfur content (which provides that classic onion "bite") mellows into a rich sweetness when cooked: Caramelized Perfection: Because of its balance of sugars and pungency, it browns beautifully for French Onion soup or burger toppings. The Sauté Base: The ideal "aromatic" for starting any mirepoix, stew, or pasta sauce. Onion Rings: Its firm, crisp layers hold their shape perfectly when battered and fried. Pickling: Its early harvest window makes it the perfect candidate for summer pickling projects. 🪴 Growing Information Type: Long-Day (Best for Northern latitudes, generally 35° parallel and above). Days to Maturity: 95–100 days (from transplant). Spacing: Plant 4 inches apart in rows 12 inches apart. Harvesting: Harvest when the "necks" soften and the tops fall over and turn brown. Gardener’s Pro-Tip: "Because the New York Early matures faster than other storage types, it’s a great choice for gardeners with shorter growing seasons or those who want to clear their beds early to make room for fall crops like kale or spinach." Reliable. Early. Delicious.The New York Early Onion is a testament to the power of regional breeding. It offers the perfect combination of old-world flavor and modern-day reliability for any Northern garden.

Parade Bunching Onion, Organic

🟣 Purplette Onion The Gourmet Jewel of the Spring Garden Add a splash of sophisticated color to your vegetable patch with the Purplette Onion. This unique, open-pollinated specialty onion is a favorite among chefs and market gardeners for its stunning deep-burgundy skin and mild, refined flavor. Unlike traditional onions that take all season to mature, Purplette is built for speed and versatility, offering delicious harvests at nearly every stage of its growth. 📜 Historical Heritage & Origin While many heirloom onions have centuries of history, the Purplette is a modern heirloom classic that gained fame during the "Gourmet Gardening" movement of the late 20th century. It was developed to meet the demand for high-quality, "miniature" vegetables—a trend inspired by French kitchen gardens (potagers). It is prized for being a day-neutral variety, a trait that allowed it to spread quickly among gardeners globally. Unlike older varieties that were strictly tied to specific latitudes, Purplette was bred to be adaptable, performing consistently well from the cool climates of the North to the warmer southern regions. Its striking color and "pearl onion" size made it an overnight sensation in the 1980s and 90s at upscale farmers' markets, where it was often sold in beautiful, multi-colored bunches. ✨ Product Highlights Stunning Color: Glossy purple skins that transition to a soft, glowing pink when pickled or cooked. Versatile Harvest: Can be harvested as a "glossy purple" scallion, a golf-ball-sized mini onion, or a classic pearl onion. Ultra-Fast Maturity: One of the earliest onions you can harvest, often ready in just 60 days. Mild Flavor: Sweet and crunchy with very little "bite," making it perfect for raw eating, kabobs, or whole-roasting. 🛠️ Quick Growth Profile Feature Specifications Plant Type Annual / Specialty Mini Onion Color Deep Purple Skin / White Interior Days to Maturity 60 Days (for mini bulbs) Sun Requirement Full Sun (6+ hours) Bulb Size 1 to 2 inches (Ping-pong ball size) Adaptability Day-Neutral (Grows well in most regions) 🌱 How to Grow Purplette Onions 1. Sowing the Seeds:Purplette onions can be direct-sown as soon as the soil can be worked in early spring. Because they stay small, you can plant them much more densely than standard onions. Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep. Space seeds roughly 1 inch apart. 2. Thinning for Success:If you want "pearl" or "mini" bulbs, thin the seedlings to 2–3 inches apart. If you prefer to harvest them as purple scallions (green onions), you can leave them crowded at 1 inch apart. 3. Soil & Water:Like all onions, Purplette has shallow roots and requires consistent moisture. Ensure your soil is loose and rich in organic matter. Mulch lightly to keep the soil cool and prevent weeds from competing with the delicate young stems. 4. Harvesting Stages: At 30-40 Days: Harvest as "purple scallions" when the base is just beginning to swell. At 60 Days: Harvest when the bulbs are 1–2 inches wide for the classic "mini" onion look. Note: Unlike storage onions, the tops of Purplette do not always "fall over" when ripe. Harvest them when they reach your desired size! 🍳 Culinary Note When cooked, the vibrant purple skin fades to a beautiful, translucent light pink. To preserve the deep purple color, try quick-pickling them in white vinegar or serving them raw as a garnish for salads and steaks. Garden Tip: Because Purplette matures so quickly, it is the perfect "gap-filler." Plant them in the spaces between slow-growing crops like peppers or tomatoes; you’ll be harvesting your onions just as the larger plants need the extra room! ⏲️

Tokyo Long White Bunching Onion, Heirloom, Organic

🧅 Valencia Onion (Spanish Sweet) The Giant of the Mediterranean If you are looking for an onion that combines impressive size with a mild, sugary flavor, the Valencia Onion (often called the "Sweet Spanish") is the gold standard. Known for producing massive, globe-shaped bulbs that can easily reach a pound or more, this heirloom is a staple for gardeners who want "hamburger-sized" slices and a crunch that won't overpower the palate. 📜 Historical Heritage & Origin As the name suggests, this heirloom variety traces its ancestry to the fertile coastal plains of Valencia, Spain. For centuries, Spanish farmers selected for onions that were larger and sweeter than the pungent, long-storing "cooking onions" of Northern Europe. The Valencia type was introduced to the United States in the late 19th century and quickly became the parent stock for many "Spanish Sweet" varieties we see today. It was prized by homesteaders because it bridged the gap between different climates; while many onions are strictly "short-day" (Southern) or "long-day" (Northern), the Valencia is a versatile Intermediate-day onion. This means it is highly adaptable and can be grown successfully in almost any region of the country. Historical Note:First introduced to American gardeners in the late 1880s, the Valencia Onion was a horticultural sensation. In 1894, famed seedsman Peter Henderson noted that these were the same "magnificent" sweet onions once found only at elite city fruit stands, imported at great cost from Spain. By bringing these seeds to the home gardener, the Valencia variety allowed everyone to grow "hamburger-sized" onions that were previously a luxury. They also went by the names The Prizetaker, Spanish King, Giant Yellow Spanish and Denia Onions. ✨ Product Highlights Mild & Sweet: Very low pungency, making it the perfect choice for eating raw on sandwiches, in salads, or as blooming onions. Colossal Size: With proper spacing and fertility, these bulbs can grow to be 4–6 inches in diameter. Beautiful Aesthetics: Features thin, papery skins in a shimmering straw-yellow or golden-bronze hue. Adaptable: One of the most reliable "all-region" onions available to the home gardener. 🛠️ Quick Growth Profile Feature Specifications Plant Type Annual / Biennial (Heirloom) Onion Type Intermediate-day (Adaptable to most latitudes) Bulb Size 4 to 6 inches (up to 1 lb+) Days to Maturity 110–120 Days Sun Requirement Full Sun (8+ hours) Storage Potential Short to Medium (Best used within 3–4 months) 🌱 How to Grow Valencia Onions 1. Starting from Seed:Onions have a long runway. Start seeds indoors 10–12 weeks before the last frost. Sow thinly in flats and keep the tops trimmed to about 3 inches to encourage strong root development before transplanting. 2. Transplanting:Move seedlings to the garden as soon as the soil can be worked in early spring. They are frost-hardy! Space plants 4–6 inches apart. If you want truly giant onions, give them the full 6 inches of space to expand. 3. Soil & Water: The "Heavy Feeder": Onions require rich soil. Amend your bed with plenty of compost or a nitrogen-rich organic fertilizer at planting. Consistent Moisture: Onions have shallow roots. Do not let the soil dry out completely, or the bulbs will stop growing and become more pungent. 4. Weed Control:Onions do not compete well with weeds. Keep the area around your Valencia onions meticulously clean. Use mulch (like straw) to suppress weeds and retain moisture. 5. Harvesting & Curing: The Signal: When the green tops turn yellow and fall over, the onions are ready. The Cure: Pull the bulbs and let them dry in a shaded, airy spot (like a porch or garage) for 2–3 weeks until the necks are completely dry and the outer skins are papery. Garden Tip: For the absolute sweetest flavor, harvest your Valencia onions "green" (before the skins dry) and eat them fresh from the garden. While they don't store as long as pungent storage onions, their flavor is unparalleled in mid-summer! 🍔

Yellow of Parma Onion

The Seed Savers Exchange -In France this variety is referred to as 'Cuisse de Poulet du Poitou' (chicken leg of Poitou). It is a type of Eschalion, or banana shallot, so named because of its distinctive torpedo shape. Shallots are a type of onion that developed in Central or Southeast Asia. Onions are thought to have been used as a food source for millennia, but it isn't clear when onion bulbs began to be cultivated rather than collected from the wild. It appears to have been used in ancient Egypt and Greece. In the Middle Ages onions formed an important part of European diets. Early European settlers brought bulbing onions to the Americas, where the indigenous peoples were already using wild onions. Shallots pair well with bay leaves, tarragon, rosemary, thyme, cumin, and coriander. Caramelized shallots offer a rich flavor without the heat or bite of a raw shallots and can be used in soups, to top pizzas, or served over squash, mushrooms, or meat dishes.
