Onion Bohemia

Snitt onion variety Bohemia is a perennial plant that can be grown in one place for 3 to 10 years due to its high resistance to diseases and adverse conditions. The period from sowing seeds to the first harvest is about 100 days. The plant overwinters well and quickly regrows in spring, forming a dense clump about 30-50 cm tall with abundant green mass. Leaves are tubular, hollow, thin, and tender, 40-50 cm long and 0.5-0.9 cm in diameter, dark green with a slight waxy coating, and have a semi-sharp flavor. Bohemia has a mild grassy taste with a delicate onion aroma that does not overpower other ingredients, making it an excellent alternative to parsley in cooking. Leaves can be used fresh to impart a subtle and unusual feathery aroma to dishes. Additionally, its edible and attractive purple spherical flowers are used as a garnish. With regular cutting, leaves regrow throughout the season, ensuring a steady supply of greens. The Bohemia variety is valued not only for its taste but also for its high vitamin C content, making it beneficial for health. The plant is low-maintenance and suitable for cultivation on garden plots, private and farmsteads. Moreover, Bohemia is an excellent honey plant, further increasing its value for ecosystems and beekeeping.
