SemiletkA, or Batun Onion SemiletkA, is a perennial herb grown for its tender and aromatic greens. Unlike the onion, this variety does not form large bulbs, directing all nutrients into juicy green stalks. The leaves are tubular, 0.5 to 0.9 cm in diameter, dark green with a waxy coating, and have a semi-sharp taste. The mass of leaves from one plant can reach 200-250 grams. Greens are valued for their high vitamin C content, which is twice that of regular onion.
SemiletkA onion is grown in one place for 5-7 years, ensuring a stable and high yield. Greens can be harvested from May until the first autumn frosts. The plant prefers neutral, light, and fertile soils, and sunny plots are chosen for planting. Growing is done via seedlings, with mineral complexes recommended for feeding once or twice per season. The variety is distinguished by disease resistance, which eases care and improves crop quality.
SemiletkA onion greens are used exclusively fresh, serving as an excellent seasoning for various dishes and forming the basis for spring salads. Due to high vitamin and microelement content, it helps strengthen immunity and protect the body from various diseases. This onion will be a useful and tasty addition to your diet, especially in the spring-summer period.
