Allium fistulosum L.

The Welsh onion is a crop specialized in the production of vitamin-rich greens, characterized by a high regeneration rate and a mild flavor.

In the reference 17 varieties crop Welsh onion, where this is mentioned in the description.

The primary value of the crop lies in its tubular leaves and succulent pseudostem, which are consumed whole without the need to remove dry scales. Compared to the green tops of common onions, Welsh onion contains twice as much ascorbic acid and has a milder flavor, making it a preferred ingredient for salads and fresh dishes.

When selecting varieties, priority is given to the duration of the commercial harvest period, during which the leaves do not become coarse or bolt, as well as the presence of a waxy bloom that increases resistance to adverse weather conditions.
