Shallot Seed 'Matador'

Allium cepa (Aggregatum Group) 'Matador'

RHS Award of Garden Merit

1 or more £2.95 each

This Product is Available Now.

Supplied as a packet of approximately 90 seeds.

One of the best varieties of Shallot to grow from seed, Matador consistently produces heavy crops of quality bulbs. The thick reddish brown skin protects the pure white flesh beneath - which is gorgeously crisp and richly flavoured.

Stores very well - and can keep right through to Spring of the following year.

Sow March to early May (not before) in seed trays or module trays under protection.
Provide a minimum germination temperature of 50°F (10°C), but ideally closer to 60°F (16°C).
Set out when large enough to handle 8" (20 cm) apart in rows 8" (20 cm).

Top Tips
Avoid planting out after the first week in June as bulbs will not mature properly from such late plantings.
Keep weed free at all times.
Avoid over-watering, but water thoroughly in warm dry spells.

Supplied as a packet of approximately 90 seeds.

Just received the Aloe Vera plant this morning. Excellent condition and looks very healthy. I bought it for my mum as a birthday present (she's wanted on for years) and was very pleased with it! Well worth the money. Lauren Maslin, Leeds
