Description

Leek onion "Ishikura Long White" is a succulent spring onion with a long white stem, but no bulbs form on it. With its fresh green foliage, it stands nicely upright in the vegetable patch. The bunching onion shows good resistance to thrips, and is hardy in sheltered locations.

Non hybrid

Frostproof

Growing tips

On loose, slightly sandy soil spring onion feels particularly well. Waterlogging should be avoided at all costs. The location should also be sunny. Spring onions can be sown directly in the open as early as March, or they can be grown in advance and planted out in the open from April.
