sturon onions

[hawthorns]

has anyone successfully grown sturon onions overwinter

[rustylady]

I think Sturon are for spring planting.

[northepaul]

Yeah they are

Try the japanese ones for overwinter hawthorns - 'Senshyu' are the yellow ones. They should be available in most places - garden centres, £1 shop etc etc
Hope that helps

what about growing in modules in a cold greenhouse then planting out in spring

[rustylady]

Are you thinking of growing from sets or seeds, Hawthorns?
