Set the shallots in a huge growing bag, also bought from Marshalls several years back and ideal for them in my small garden. Sprouting away and all showing green tips today. Good sturdy plants and enjoying the rain.

Long, sweet-flavoured 'banana shallot' bulbs
Produces up to nine bulbs per set
Great for overwintering and stores well
The Shallot Longor, also known as the 'banana shallot', is favoured for its long, copper-skinned bulbs and sweet flavour. Each set can produce a cluster of up to nine bulbs, making it an ideal choice for overwintering in allotments. The cold winter helps split the sets, leading to multiple bulbs ready for harvest in summer.
Plant sets 18cm apart, with the tip protruding above firm, but not compacted, soil. Ensure birds don’t uproot the sets by using scaring tactics, and keep the area weed-free. Shallots are ready from June and are perfect for shallow frying, especially when paired with salmon for a fresh summer dish.
