Notes
'Outlander' onion (Allium cepa 'Outlander') is a vegetable for borders, containers, and the food garden. 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 rarely make it their first choice. The arching, fragrant plants bring yellow blooms in spring and summer.
Pairs well with Suyo Long cucumber, Ellagance Purple lavender, and Siskiyou Pink gaura.
