Shallots

I introduced shallots to my gardens during the 2024 season. Genetically speaking, shallots are indistinguishable from potato onions, although they have a more mild flavor and store poorly compared to potato onions.

My Red Dutch were purchased from Southern Exposure Seed Exchange.

The Nero shallots were bought from Fedco Seeds.
