Onion Red Ripper is a lovely red ringed, globed shaped salad onion that grows well in cool climates. They like a good, well-drained soil and a sunny position taking about 200 days to mature. They are harvested when the stems are yellow.
With a mild flavour perfect for salads, toasted sandwiches and general cooking, they are a great all-rounder. They are very decorative when sliced across the bulb to reveal which and red rings, so are ideal fresh in salads or cooked with pasta.
One of the most popular crops for the gardener, onions are a huge must for any gardener with a vegetable patch, as they are so versatile and can be used for a variety of different things. Once you have had home grown onions, you will find it hard to buy from the supermarket again.
