MULTIPLIER ONIONS:
POTATO ONIONS AND SHALLOTS
(Allium cepa var. aggregatum)
ORDERING AND SHIPPING INFORMATION
for MULTIPLIER and TOPSET ONIONS:

Bulbs are shipped mid September through early November, starting with northern states.
We do not ship bulbs outside the continental U.S.


CULTURE: Multiplier onions are hardy, productive perennials. According to the National Gardening Bureau, multiplier onions can produce a larger yield per area than any other vegetable except staked tomatoes. Multiplier onions produce a cluster of bulbs at ground level from a single planted bulb. The larger bulbs are saved for eating, and the medium and small bulbs are stored and replanted. Both potato onions and shallots can be grown in pots for forcing green onions during the winter. Multiplier onions exist in two horticultural forms: potato onions and shallots. Shallots may be distinguished from potato onions by the shape and division pattern of the bulbs. Shallots vary in their ability to produce seed, but potato onions rarely produce seed. There are several advantages of growing multiplier onions: (1) They are not as readily bothered by the onion fly as are seed onions. (2) Once you have enough perrenial onions you need not buy seeds or sets again. (3) Some types of multiplier onions are in demand as gourmet items in restaurants. (4) Potato onions and many shallots store well, and can withstand subfreezing temperatures in every area of the continental U.S. when properly planted.
