Purely Organic Heirloom Onion Seeds - Bunching Evergreen (Approx 250 Seeds)

Sow seeds outdoors in a sunny area with well tilled, well drained soil after the last frost date in the spring. (Sow new seeds every 2 weeks for continuous harvests all the way into winter.) When planting, space seeds 1-2" apart; and firm soil over the top. Soil should be moist, but well drained, to ensure germination. As seedlings grow, thin to 1 plant per 2-3" to provide room to grow. Early harvest onions are great in salads, sandwiches and stir fries. Harvest remaining onions when they mature at about 6-9 inches in height.

Make the Most of Your Spacing: Bunching onions are great space savers. They can be sown in neat rows; but they also work well in containers, or as companion plants around flowerbeds, vegetable patches and garden edges. Wherever you plant them just make sure the soil is well drained; and there's plenty of sunlight.

Help Your Plants Thrive with Weed Control: Weeds compete with vegetables, flowers and other plants for water, space and nutrients. Give your plants their best life by keeping weeds under control with Organic Weed Barrier Paper, mulch or careful weeding.

How Can I Store My Seeds Safely for Use in the Future?
Our seeds will generally retain their high germination rates for several years from the date of purchase. If you're planning on saving your seeds for us in the future, the most important thing to remember that seeds like to be stored where it is cool, dry and dark. The easiest way to ensure this for long term storage at home is to double-seal your seeds inside two zipper style bags and then place them in the freezer. (Make sure you label your seeds for future reference if they're not in original packaging.) When you're ready to plant your seeds, take just the ones you want to use out of the freezer and let them sit on a counter, in a covered container, for a few days to thaw and stabilize before being planted. To preserve germination rates, minimize temperature, light and humidity fluctuations by storing your seeds at the back of the freezer and only taking them out when you're ready to use them.

The Package with my Seeds in was Left Outside in Freezing and/or Rainy Weather. Will the Seeds Still Work?
As long as your seeds have not gotten wet they should work fine. Freezing temperatures will not hurt the seeds.
