Description: NON GMO HEIRLOOM HOME GROWN VEGETABLES JUST TASTE BETTER! MADE IN USA 25-30 SEEDS BORETTANA YELLOW CIPOLLINI ONION Borettana is a long- to intermediate-day Italian heirloom cipollini onion distinguished by its small size and mild taste. Onions are usually harvested when only 2–4″ across and only 1″ long, with a flattened, saucer- like shape and golden-yellow skin. The firm, dense, and sweet nature of these little bulbs make them ideal for pickling or cooking (to caramelize the sugars). Good for stem braiding and storing: they’ll easily keep for 5–6 months.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATRONAGE AND HAPPY GARDENING! HOMEGROWN HEIRLOOM VEGETABLES JUST TASTE BETTER! INCLUDES BASIC GROWING INSTRUCTIONS a quick note on seed storage... I feel through my experience the best way to store your seed is in the refrigerator. Some vegetable varieties produce seed that remains viable for many years (tomatoes) and others produce seed that does not store well under any conditions (onions). I believe seed stored under refrigerated conditions could last 10 years or more. I planted some ACE 55 seeds from 2000 in the summer of 2017. They did great! Germination rates were in the 90% and above range...these seeds had been sitting in a box in my garage for the past 17 years! I have some of that seed available now listed as Marlboro Ace 55. GET SOME! At Frontier Farms, we specialize in many varieties of Heirloom tomatoes, peppers, plus many other vegetable varieties. WHAT IS AN HEIRLOOM? Heirloom plants are grown from seeds that have been handed down thru generations, saved from year to year, some varieties dating back hundreds of years. Many made the migration from Europe and the East with the immigrants coming to the USA. The seeds are never cross pollinated and so they remain true to their particular characteristics. Heirloom tomatoes come in all colors, shapes, and sizes ? Reds, Pinks, Yellows, Orange, White, Green, Striped, and Black. Ranging in sizes of cherry and grape to large grapefruit size, meaty, or juicy. WHY HEIRLOOM? These tomatoes are more natural, they are non GMO (genetically modified). They do not have as long of a shelf life as store bought tomatoes, but that is what makes them special. They have a real fantastic tomato flavor not found in grocery store offerings. These tomatoes are indeterminate (they grow all season, they flower all season and they produce tomatoes all season. They don't stop until frost. Once heirloom tomatoes are picked, they do not have a long shelf life as hybrids but they more than make up for any shortcomings in flavor.Please see my other listings and my store for more great varieties and thank you!
