Vibrant red tipped bunching onion that develops its colour early. Apache forms a small, vivid pink bulb if left to mature. Its mild flavour and crisp texture make this colourful variety a wonderful addition to salads and sandwiches. Provided with the frost protection of a cloche row cover, Apache will grow slowly all winter long. Sow at three-week intervals from March to the end of July for a continuous harvest. The quirky little onions are perfect for the market table. Winner of the RHS Award of Garden Merit.
Matures in 65 days. (Open-pollinated seeds)
