Probably my favorite addition to my garden last year

These grew really well with minimal care and produced tons of beautiful and tasty shallots. I will definitely grow these again.

Too soon to tell.

Germination was slow and erratic. 'Hoping that they will redeem themselves. In the meantime, I ordered another packet hoping for better results.

I planted these under lights on 1/18. They came up quickly with over 90% germination. They are sturdy seedlings - I can't wait to get them in the garden!
