Conservor Shallot Garden Starts

Our Experience with Conservor Shallot:

We're not sure what we did to make these grow so big... maybe its the timing of our planting?  Or perhaps it was a sunnier than normal spring? Regardless, they got big and everyone loved it. We plant these the same way and at the same time as our other onions. And when the tops start to fall over, you know they're ready.

Our Alliums come in small four inch pots with 12-15 plants per container. They can be transplanted starting in mid April. When you transplant, try and protect them from birds that pluck the newly transplanted alliums looking for worms.

An Overview of Conservor Shallot from the Internet:

The Conservor Shallot is a highly regarded French 'demi-long' or half-long variety, celebrated for its exceptional storage qualities and refined flavor. These shallots produce attractive, teardrop-shaped bulbs with coppery-pink skin and crisp, pink-tinged white flesh. Their taste is a perfect balance of mild onion and subtle garlic notes, making them a preferred choice for gourmet cooking without overpowering other ingredients. A reliable and productive grower, Conservor is known for its vigor and resistance to bolting. Its key feature is its ability to store well for extended periods, often up to ten months, ensuring a long-lasting supply for culinary use.
