Shallot ‘Golden Brittany’ F1

Allium cepa var. aggregatum

Sale price$3.90

A true classic of the French kitchen garden. These elegant, shallots produce teardrop-shaped bulbs (30-50mm) with a copper-gold skin & pale, rose-tinged flesh. Prized by chefs and home cooks for their refined, complex flavour — sweeter and more nuanced than an onion. In the 2nd year the bulbs can be planted & will multiply into clusters. 1 pkt = 100 seeds. Bulk seed available.

Size: 1 pkt
