If you love the idea of onions you can snip as you need them (instead of waiting months for a bulb), Japanese Red Beard is a must. It’s a red-stemmed bunching onion that originates from Japan and it’s wonderfully low-fuss — happy in a range of soils and simple to grow.
The best bit? Don’t pull the whole plant. Cut it down and it regenerates, giving you repeat harvests, which feels like cheating in the nicest possible way.
Why you’ll love it
- Cut-and-come-again harvests – cut it down, let it regenerate, repeat
- Red-stemmed bunching onion – a little bit different (and very pretty in the patch)
- Easy to grow – suited to a variety of soil types
- Planting guide included – zone-by-zone timing for Australia
- Soil tips that actually matter – well-drained soil, don’t overdo nitrogen; onions love potassium so add wood ash/potash
- Sun or part shade – flexible positioning, especially after leafy greens like lettuce or cabbage
- Made in Australia
