Golden shallot

Garden uses

Notes

'Golden' shallot (Allium cepa 'Golden') is a vegetable grown for borders, containers, and the food garden. It is typically grown as an annual. It is one of the more cold-hardy crops and can keep growing through light freezes with some winter protection. This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil of most types. The arching, fragrant plants bloom from early to late summer. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything.

Pairs well with Beet/chard, Lettuce, and Candy carrot.
