Onion Scallions Italian, Heirloom

Renee's Garden - Enjoy these heirloom Italian salad onions at the scallion stage, or let them grow into succulent and juicy baby onions.

They taste absolutely delicious sliced into salads or stirfries, egg dishes, or topping pizza. Plus these special salad onions grow easily and hold well in the garden so you can harvest as needed over an extended period.
