A mid-late maturing variety with flattish-round bulbs of a beautiful dark red color. Onion Red Baron seeds - An excellent cropper producing attractive, firm well flavored bulbs which keep well.

This item is a long-day variety. There are two main kinds of onions, based on the day length required for bulb formation. Short-day varieties start forming an enlarged bulb when days are 12 or 13 hours long; long-day varieties don't form a bulb until days are 14-16 hours long. For both types, bulb enlargement is arrested during hot, freezing or dry weather. Near the equator, where days are 11-13 hours long throughout the year, long-day onions will never form a bulb; and in Canada, where days are 14-20 hours long during the growing season, short-day onions will never form a bulb.
