SHALLOTS

Image by Barbara Cilliers

They are grow in the same way as onions

You can now get shallot seeds that will produce

one shallot per seed. Sets will break apart and

4 or 5 shallots will grow out from this. 

Depending how big you would like them to be depends

on the spacing. 5- 10cm apart but with rows only 10-15cm

apart
