Harvested and Packed in the USA. Approx. 200 Seeds of “Apache” Bunching Onion. Germination Rate 87% minimum. Seeds may be started indoors or planted directly in the ground in any season. “Apache” bunching onions are one of the best varieties for late fall and early winter cultivation of salad onions. They may be the best for red or pink bunching onions. Tips and How to Grow: Plant seeds 1/4” apart. Do not crowd as the onions will not develop properly without enough space. Seeds should produce sprouts within 4 to 7 days. Sprouts will appear small, long, and thin. As the seedlings develop, these small stems will grow up and thicken. This growing process takes roughly 90 days to produce bunching onion of up to 1/2” in diameter. Keep soil damp at all times. If allowed to continue growing, most bunching onion varieties will progress to the “Spring Onion” stage. This means they will develop a small bulb and a slightly stronger onion flavor as opposed to the very light flavor and straight stalk of a traditional bunching onion.
Attractive Appearance Apache bunching onions are known for their striking dark red color which starts at the root and goes all the way up to the green tops, leaving only a small streak of white inbetween.
Culinary Flexibility These onions have a mild yet distinct flavor, making them versatile in the kitchen. They can be used in salads, as garnishes, in stir-fries, soups, and other dishes where a subtle onion flavor is desired.
Easy to Grow Like other bunching onions, Apaches are relatively easy to cultivate. They are resilient to a variety of growing conditions and can be grown in garden beds or containers, making them suitable for different gardening spaces.
Continuous Harvest If you only want the tops, Apache bunching onions allow for "cut and come again" harvesting. You can snip off what you need while leaving the bulb to regrow. This provides a continuous supply of fresh onions throughout the growing season.
Space-Efficient These onions grow vertically and do not require much space, making them ideal for small gardens, balconies, or even windowsills. They offer high yield in a compact area.
It's winter here so haven't planted seeds yet sure seeds will do fine. I did some research on the plant and caused me to buy the seeds. I also got some plants at store and tried some of the stuff U can do with plant. I used some tops for cooking and than put roots in a pot and they did grow again! I cut the tops of them and they grew again. Has many uses and very easy to grow. Should be in every house threw winter. I haven't tried yet but see way U couldn't cut in pieces and dry and store. Story. I was born in 1952, there was 5 boys an 1 girl, the youngest. In my fathers family. In those days was no TV, no freezers. He had a garden and he got all he needed from it. He had a dirt floor basement with saw horses set up and plywood on them. He would dry sweet corn, green beans, onions, what ever he could . He had a wood burning stove about 6-8 ft wide. Had a oven and several burners on side. A amazing thing. My little sis and I would go stay weekend with. He would soak dried corn over night and next day would fry in butter. It was the best corn ever. They canned or dried there meat. We have to go back to old ways. Lost most my friends from school in Nom from agent orange, that had round up in it from cancer. We are the only country that hasn't banned it WHY? We are still using it on crops for weed control . Cancer? were drinking it, eating it, and breathing it. To many people make money off cancer. It's up to U. Help save our children. Also I haven't canned for yrs. I vacuum seal everything.
