Add a touch of Italian gourmet flair to your kitchen with our Red Cipollini Onion seeds. These famous "little onions" are prized for their flat, button-like shape and a deep red skin that peels away to reveal a sweet, mild flesh. Far sweeter than standard onions, Red Cipollini are the gold standard for roasting whole, pickling, or caramelizing to perfection. Historically seen in Italian kitchens braided like garlic, these are excellent keepers that allow you to enjoy a gourmet harvest long after the growing season ends.

⭐ What you'll love

  • Unique, flat "button" shape that looks beautiful in the garden and on the plate.
  • Exceptional sweetness—perfect for caramelizing, roasting, or kabobs.
  • Excellent storage life; can be braided and hung for long-term use.
  • A gourmet Italian heirloom that is surprisingly easy to grow.
