Sainte-Anne Shallot - Perennial - Dried bulbs for planting
Latin name: Allium ascalonicum
A true living treasure of our Quebec heritage, the Sainte-Anne perennial shallot is very prolific; one bulb planted in July can give ten bulbs the following year!
Named "Sainte-Anne" by our ancestors due to the fact that they planted it around July 26 (the feast of Sainte-Anne) and harvested around June 24 (Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day).
You can eat the stems like sweet green onions, and the bulbs like the French shallot.
