Schelia

Schelia onion variety is a medium- or early-maturing type with red-purple bulb color. This variety is intended for seed cultivation and is not suitable for vegetative propagation. Bulbs have a purple-red hue with a dense, attractive skin, and their weight varies from 25 to 150 grams depending on growing conditions and maturity stage. The flesh is slightly reddish, tender, juicy, and mildly pungent, making this variety versatile for culinary use.

Schelia exhibits high resistance to bolting, enabling its cultivation in various soil and climatic conditions. Maturation period is 70 to 80 days, while greens can be harvested as early as 25-30 days after planting. The onion stores well for a long time, making it convenient for extended use and sale.

Schelia seeds are small, with 200 to 260 seeds per gram and 4-5 grams per 1000 seeds. This allows effective seed planning and high-quality harvests. Due to its characteristics and versatility, Schelia is an excellent choice for gardeners and farmers seeking a stable and flavorful shallot harvest.
