Violet De Galmi Onion
The Violet De Galmi onion is a popular onion in several African, and Middle Eastern countries. It comes from the village of Galmi, a small community in the Ader Valley of southeast Niger. The Flat bulbs are of good quality and are a beautiful violet color. They also store well, which makes it an ideal choice for a short-day onion. For best results plant in early spring or late summer and allow 6 to 12 hours of sunlight. Approx. 105 to 110 days to maturity. Photo courtesy of Baker Creek.
