- Product number: 305655

Beautiful pink onions from the Sarona region (Italy), the shape is slightly flattened-round, and the thin rings have a lilac hue internally. The mild taste has a lot of aroma with some sweet notes, making these onions very popular in salads (raw).
Tip: sow them close together, then they can be harvested by thinning from the spring onion stage to a mature onion.
