| RED TROPEA, CIPPOLINI, RED BULL |
| Posted By: TOM ANDREWS |

Comments: AS ALWAYS THESE DID WELL HERE IN COASTAL MASSACHUSETTS. I UNDERSTAND SOME OF YOUR SEED (TROPEA, CIPPOLINI) IS FROM FRANCHI THROUGH BILL MCKAY AT GROWITALIAN.COM. HE'S NEARBY AND I'VE GROWN HIS SEED HERE, TOO, WITH EXCELLENT RESULTS. HOWEVER, YOUR PLANTS ARE SO MUCH EASIER! THANKS FOR TAKING SOME OF THE WORK OUT OF THIS EFFORT! ACTUALLY RED BULL WAS VERY GOOD HERE, THOUGH A BIT SMALL SINCE IT DIDN'T GET THE MAX SUN AND SPACE TO GROW. IT'S A KEEPER HERE. I'LL CERTAINLY TRY RED ZEPPELIN NEXT. NOTE THAT THE CIPPOLINI MAKES EXCELLENT SCALLIONS UP NORTH THROUGH MAY OR EARLY JUNE. SINCE THIS ONION HAS A THIN SKIN, ITS EARLY SCALLIONS DON'T HAVE "PAPER" TO CONTEND WITH. ANOTHER NOTE: A FEW LEEKS FROM '06 CAME UP AGAIN IN '07. I DIDN'T DIG ALL OF THEM BACK THEN. WHAT FUN, THEY'RE HUGE! MANY THANKS! |

Comments: Out of the many varieties I've tried from Dixondale this is by far the worst and a total waste of space. Red Bull did so well for me and only when assured by them this one was better did I try it. The only one where the bulbs never got as big a golf ball. Most of the other varieties made nice sized bulbs. Hopefully you will add another good red varieity. Because this one is a failure. |
