We love red onions! And we love Stark Brothers! Stark Brothers has been used by our family for at least three generations so we know these plants will be of great quality.

Delicious red onions!
These are easy to grow. They are also a wonderful tasting red onion. My husband loves them. I grow a lot just to keep and give away

The only red onion I've had last so long.
These are good onions, not too strong. And they kept pretty well in my basement over the winter. Some started sprouting in January, but I was able to keep using some through March.

Quick delivery
Onions arrived prompt and in great condition. The only negative is there are not 60 included in the set as stated. Other than that everything else is great.

Redwing Onions
Redwing onions did not do well here in central Georgia. But, in all fairness, I don't think I grew the onions properly either. I need to try growing the redwing onions the right way and see if I get better results.
