Onion Plant 'Red Brunswick'
Allium cepa 'Red Brunswick'
- Mild red onion.
- Produces good-sized onions.
- Stores well.
Supplied as as nursery-fresh transplants.
Available from APPROXIMATELY late April / early May5 or more £0.50GBP each. Group & quantity discounts
Description
Gorgeously sweet when cooked and particularly good for curries!
Red Brunswick is attractive when used for garnishing and salad rings as it produces distinct crimson rings against the white flesh of the onion when sliced –it is mild enough to be eaten raw but still has good flavour when cooked.
An old, well-tried and tested variety that you can rely on.
Onions are medium to large in size and somewhat flat in shape. This variety consistently crops exceptionally well and will keep into spring.
Recommended by the RHS to be an excellent attractant and nectar source for bees and other beneficial insects if allowed to 'go over' and flower (so if you have room leave any plants in that have gone too far rather than pulling them out straight away).
- Set out late March onwards (the later planting out is left the smaller the resulting onions will be, though worthwhile crops can still be produced from plantings as late as early July).
- Set out 9" (23 cm) apart in rows 15" (38 cm) apart.
