Notes
'Feast' onion (Allium cepa 'Feast') is a vegetable for food gardens, borders, and containers. It is typically grown as an annual. Few crops handle cold as well, and with a little winter protection it grows on through light freezes. This plant likes full sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. Its arching leaves give the bed a fragrant edge.
Pairs well with Margarita cucumber, Ellagance Purple lavender, and Water mint.
