60 days from direct-sowing; 30 days from transplanting.
One of the easiest bunching or green onion varieties you will ever grow from seed, Warrior deserves its 2016 All-America Selection with every crisp, pungent bite! This is a terrific choice for gardeners everywhere, but was singled out by the AAS judges for its outstanding performance in the southeast, southwest, and mountainous regions of the US. You're going to love its trouble-free growth, great holding power, and rich flavor!
If you are used to supermarket green onions, you will be pleasantly surprised by the depth of flavor in Warrior's dark green tops and small, tender ½-inch-diameter bulbs. This is a fragrant, powerfully spicy, crisp bite, adding a lot of flavor in very little seasoning. Warrior can be used as a guard plant in the rose garden or vegetable patch, too, its aroma and spicy flavor discouraging nibbling pests from venturing any further into the garden.
This vigorous variety is so compact that it is also suitable for container use, even if you let it mature to full size to harvest its bulb. Dense and upright, it maintains a slender silhouette packed with dark green foliage.
And if you can't harvest Warrior right away, no problem -- it holds up well in the garden, refusing to flop or become limp. This is the onion you will rely on at both ends of the season -- when it is a bit too soon or a bit too late for the peak of the season! Its flavor and texture hold brilliantly.
Warrior makes a particularly good choice for new gardeners, because it is resistant to pink root and generally free from pests and diseases. Easy to grow, quick to harvest, versatile and compact -- everything about this bunching onion is just a bit better! You're going to love it.
Sow seeds 2 per inch in the early spring or early fall garden, setting them ½-inch deep and then thinning to 3 to 4 inches apart. Packet is 200 seeds.
This 20 inch tall plant is grown for its edible, enlarged, bulbous, underground portion which may be white, red, or yellow in color. The narrow foliage is light green and is very strong smelling. Harvest the bulbs when the leaves begin to fall over and the bulbs are easily pulled from the ground. If there is resistance, the roots are still actively growing and the onion should not be harvested. Hasten maturity by removing the tops and look to be able to harvest the bulbs in a week. Eat them fresh or dry them for storage

First of all, we have humidity- and temperature-controlled storage, and we never treat any of our seeds with chemicals or pesticides. Nor do we ever sell GMO's (genetically modified seeds), so you always know the products you're buying from us are natural as well as safe for you and the environment.

Park Seed has been handling and packing vegetable and flower seeds for 145 years, a history that has given us a great understanding of how each variety should be cared for and maintained throughout every step of theprocess, from collection to shipping.
When packing our seeds, the majority are actually done by hand (with extreme care!), and we often over-pack them, so you're receiving more than the stated quantity.
The Park Seed Gold Standard
Heirloom Seeds are open-pollinated -- they are not hybrids. You can gather and save heirloom seed from year to year and they will grow true to type every year, so they can be passed down through generations. To be considered an heirloom, a variety would have to be at least from the 1940's and 3 generations old (many varieties are much older -- some 100 years or more!).
Hybrid seed are the product of cross-pollination between 2 different parent plants, resulting in a new plant/seed that is different from the parents. Unlike Heirloom seed, hybrid seed need to be re-purchased new every year (and not saved). They usually will not grow true to type if you save them, but will revert to one of the parents they were crossed with and most likely look/taste different in some way.
