Spring Onion White Lisbon is a reliable, quick growing spring onion with a clean, fresh flavour. It is brilliant in salads, stir fries, noodles, omelettes, soups and as a garnish. A small space crop with big kitchen usefulness.
Sow indoors - February to March Sow outdoors - March to September Sowing depth - Around 1 cm Final spacing - Around 2.5 cm Row spacing - 10 cm to 15 cm Germination - Usually 10 to 14 days
Sow thinly in small batches every few weeks for a continuous supply.
These measurements are only a guide. Growing is not an exact science, so do not worry if every seed is not perfectly placed.
Grower tip: They do not need lots of room. Sow closely and harvest some young, leaving the remaining plants more space to grow.
Spring onions are easy to grow. Keep soil moist and weed free while seedlings are small. They do not need much feeding, but they do appreciate steady watering in dry weather.
Spring onions grow very well in pots, troughs and window boxes. Use a container at least 15 cm deep. They can be grown quite closely, making them excellent for balconies and patios.
Harvest when stems are pencil thick, or earlier if you want babyspring onions. Pull as needed. For a continuous supply, sow small batches regularly.
We want your seeds to grow. If you follow our sowing instructions, give them a fair chance, and they still do not grow, we’ll put it right.
Eligible customers can choose either a refund for the seeds that did not grow, or replacement seeds of the same value.
