Sperling Toga Welsh Onion (pre-1500) (Allium fistulosum) - First introduced into England from Siberia in the 1500’s as a source of poultry feed. This extremely hardy plant overwinters easily and provides fresh green onions first thing in the spring. Fearing Burr in his book Field and Garden Vegetables of America (1865) lists two varieties of Welsh Onions: Red Welsh Onion and White Welsh Onion. He states that “The White is generally considered the better variety, as it is more tender, and milder in flavor, though much less productive.” Sperling Toga is an old variety of Welsh onion that is a great producer of green onions. As with the species, this variety is very hardy and a prolific self seeder. RARE. Low Quantity.

Parsnips(Pastinaca sativa)

Kral Russian - An old variety from Russia. The roots look just like the old Turnip Rooted Parsnip of Fearing Burr’s Field and Garden Vegetables of America. Because the roots are not as long as ordinary parsnips but turnip shaped instead, Kral Russian does very well in shallow or heavy clay soil. EXTREMELY RARE.
