Red Welsh Onions (Allium fistulosum) are a versatile and attractive addition to any garden. Known for their striking red-purple bulb bases and hollow green leaves, these onions do not form large bulbs but grow in dense clumps that can be harvested continually throughout the season.
They thrive in full sun and well-drained soil, flourishing in temperate climates with ease. Their mild, slightly sweet flavour makes them ideal for fresh use in salads, garnishes, stir-fries, and soups.
As a perennial, Red Welsh Onions will return year after year and can be propagated by dividing the clumps. They also produce attractive greenish-white flowers that support pollinators in your garden.
