🌱 Why You Need to Grow Red Beard

Species: Allium fistulosum
Days to maturity: 55–70 (baby size even quicker)

🍴 Flavour Notes

Bright, fresh onion flavour with a clean finish.
Not aggressive. Not bitter. Just… perfect.

Tastes like:
✅ Sweet scallion
✅ Tiny garlic whisper
✅ Clean vegetal crunch

Use it everywhere:

• Ramen, donburi, yakisoba

• Crudos, tartare, oyster platters

• Eggs, roasted potatoes, stir-fries

• Grilled whole with miso-butter

• Finely sliced on top of EVERYTHING

If garnish had a “chef’s secret stash,” this is it.

👨🌾 Growing Notes

• Direct sow or transplant — both work

• Sow thick for slender stalks, thin for chubbier stems

• Keep soil moist for best sweetness + colour

• Does well in beds, raised planters, even 6” pots

• Harvest outer stalks and let inner shoots keep growing

Pro tip: Hill soil around stalks mid-season for longer white shafts (like leeks but easy).

Succession plant every 2–3 weeks if you want a never-ending scallion empire.

🌟 Highlights

• Stunning red + green colour contrast

• Mild, sweet scallion flavour

• Fast-growing + extremely productive

• Cut-and-come-again habit

• Ideal for gourmet gardens & kitchen gardens

This onion makes regular scallions feel like dial-up internet.
