It's the only shallot I've ever grown and I love it. I'm growing some different ones this year so I'll see if they taste, grow or store differently. I lose about 1/4 of them in storage if I don't do anything but pull them and let them lay. If I trim them and separate them I only lose a few. |

Easy to grow, and multiplies well, disappears in the heat, but back the next year. |
