ONION 'Violet De Galmi' --Allium cepa--

Rare! The very old heirloom Galmi onion comes from the village of Galmi, a small community in the Ader Valley of southeast Niger. It is here where this flavorful onion was developed and is believed to have been grown for over 100 years, selected and passed down within the small community. It is now a popular onion in several other African countries, as well. Flat, thick bulbs are of good quality and are a beautiful pinkish-purple color; it also keeps well, making it a perfect choice as a short day onion. Keeps well. 105-140 days.
