Its stalks are crunchy, sweet, and aromatic, perfect for fresh cooking. An exceptional variety for continuous harvesting.

Sow directly in the ground or sow indoors 6 weeks before outdoor planting. Sow seeds in clusters if starting indoors. Pinch the tip of the stem when the plant reaches 10 cm. Trim the plant to 2.5 cm when it reaches 12.5 cm to encourage stalk growth. 1/4-1/2″ in direct seeding 7-32°C 7 to 14 days Prepare a clean, loose, and well-drained substrate, then moisten it before placing the seeds to limit their displacement. For the Evergreen Hardy White Scallion shallot, the indicated exposure is: Sun to partial shade.

Shallots are generally ready to be enjoyed 8 to 12 weeks after sowing. Harvest the largest plants first so that the remaining ones can continue to grow. This way, you can extend and maximize your harvest. Brassicaceae, Tomato, Lettuce, Beet, Spinach, Chamomile, Rose, Strawberry, Summer Savory. The packet contains 100 seeds.

Growing method

For Evergreen Hardy White Scallion, follow these sowing and growing guidelines for the variety. Direct sow outside or sow inside 6 weeks before moving outside. Sow seed in clusters when starting indoors. Pinch the top off when seedling reaches 4″. Trim seedling to 1” when it reaches 5” to increase thickness. 1/4-1/2″ direct 7-32°C 7 to 14 days Read the packet directions before starting and keep the label so the variety remains clearly identified throughout the season. Prepare a clean, loose, well-drained growing medium and moisten it before placing the seeds so they are not displaced by the first watering. Keep the seedbed evenly moist without standing water because excess moisture reduces air around developing roots. Move seedlings into bright light as soon as they emerge and rotate containers regularly to encourage balanced growth. Where several seedlings compete for the same space, thin carefully and retain the strongest plants without disturbing their roots. Before outdoor planting, gradually acclimatize young plants to wind, sunlight, and changing temperatures over several days. Follow the stated spacing so air can move between plants and each plant receives adequate light, water, and nutrients. Water at soil level when the surface begins to dry, then adjust frequency for weather, drainage, and container volume. This seed starting sequence supports reliable growing from seed while preserving the product-specific depth and temperature facts.

Frequently asked questions

How many 'Evergreen Hardy White Scallion' seeds are in the packet?

For Evergreen Hardy White Scallion, the packet information states: Approximately 100 seeds · lot GOGOG527 · germination >85%. This wording preserves the commercial approximation when one is provided and helps plan the number of containers or the length of the row without turning an estimate into a guaranteed count. Keep the packet closed in a cool, dry, dark place until sowing time. Keep the label with the seedlings so the variety remains correctly identified throughout the season. Use clean containers and write the sowing date on a water-resistant label. Avoid exposing unused seed to moisture or large temperature swings.

How should I start 'Evergreen Hardy White Scallion' seeds in Canada?

For Evergreen Hardy White Scallion, follow the sowing directions on the packet. The recommended method is propagation by seed, at a depth of 6 to 13 mm (1/4-1/2″) direct. Follow these product-specific directions and adjust timing to the average last-frost date in your area. Moisten the growing medium before placing the seed so the first watering does not displace it. Label every container and maintain even moisture without allowing standing water. Move seedlings into bright light as soon as they emerge to encourage balanced growth. Thin carefully when several seedlings compete for the same space. For seed starting, label the cultivar and use the stated sowing depth instead of a generic estimate.

How long do 'Evergreen Hardy White Scallion' seeds take to germinate?

For Evergreen Hardy White Scallion, the stated germination period is 7 to 14 days, with a germination temperature of 7-32°C. Keep these conditions as steady as practical while allowing excess water to drain away. The temperature of the growing medium matters more than the surrounding air during this stage. Check moisture below the surface before watering again and avoid saturating the medium. Good air circulation helps young plants remain vigorous after emergence. Wait until the normal germination window has passed before assuming a seed will not emerge. When growing from seed, keep conditions stable for the full stated germination window before disturbing the mix.

Where should I grow 'Evergreen Hardy White Scallion' in the garden?

Choose a site that is easy to water and leave enough room for air to circulate around the foliage. In a container, make sure several holes allow excess water to drain freely. A light mulch can steady moisture after the soil has warmed and plants are established. Place plants where their growth can be observed and stress can be addressed early.
