Spring onion seeds — fast, mild salad onions

Spring onions (also called salad or bunching onions) are quick, easy and endlessly useful — mild, crunchy stems for salads, stir-fries and garnishes, ready far sooner than bulb onions. They belong to the Allium cepa family within our bulb vegetable range. New to growing? Our vegetable growing guide covers the basics.

Sow in succession through the season for a steady supply — the calendar shows when.

Quick onions for salads

Pull them young and mild for salads, or let some grow on for a stronger flavour. They are among our fastest fast-growing vegetables; for bulbs to store, grow bulb onions and leeks instead.

Growing spring onions

Sow direct and thinly in rows or pots, keep moist, and sow a fresh batch every few weeks. They are great companions for carrots, helping to mask each other from pests. See all vegetable seeds.

Frequently Asked Questions

How fast are spring onions?
Much quicker than bulb onions — ready in around eight weeks, and you can sow in succession.

When should I sow them?
From early spring to late summer, little and often; some hardy types overwinter for an early crop.

Can I grow them in pots?
Yes — they are ideal for containers, troughs and the gaps between slower vegetables.

How do I harvest?
Pull whole when pencil-thick, or snip a few leaves and let the rest grow on.
