Planting & Care

Sow Red Burgundy Onion seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost, or direct sow outdoors in early spring as soon as the soil can be worked. Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep and keep the soil consistently moist until germination. Thin seedlings to stand 4-6 inches apart to allow room for bulb development.

Onions require full sun and regular watering, especially during dry spells. Mulch around plants to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Stop watering when the tops begin to yellow and fall over, signaling that bulbs are nearing maturity. Harvest when necks are dry and skins are papery, then cure in a warm, dry, well-ventilated area before storing.
