Google "Onion SY300"

You'll find a lot of sources.
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

I usually pickle shallots and they're great
Self-sufficient in rasberries and bindweed. Slug pellets can be handy.

Like noshed I usually pickle shallots but this year I picked up a packet of seeds of the onion variety De Barletta from Aldi or Lidl (can't remember which) and grew them in containers. They made the best picklers I've ever grown but unfortunately I only grew enough for three jars  :(
