Hallo everyone,

I'm very new to gardening, and have only a few things growing. But one that has puzzled me is this one that a friend from our church gave me. All he told me was that it's a form of onion?

I now know that it's a form of onion - but that's it. I know nothing else about it If anyone has any bit of advice that I need to know, I would much appreciate it! I just don't know if there's any special place to keep them, or any way to treat them

He gave me this 'Ailsa Craig' plant, potted. So I've just been watering it for the past few days and it's been fine. I'll take a picture soon and add it for ya'll

Thank you very much,

Dan.

I find T&M good for this sort of thing,

Its basically the info that would be on the back of the packet.

Very unusual to get one potted onion.

Ailsa Craig is also a variety of tomato.

Good point DD

1 potted onion is a bit useless - the tomato is more likely

It's a large variety, good for size competitions and showing, that might be the reason.

Totally agree.

If you want to grow it to a decent size then you want to put it in at least a 10 litre pot.
