It produces an abundance of large, medium-early, flat round, golden-yellow, deliciously mild-tasting bulbs. This variety is native to Germany. It is very hardy and can be stored in the ground for a long time. These onions can be stored very well if they are dried well after harvesting. Store the onions in a dark, frost-free, cool place. Stuttgarter grows to approximately 45 cm. It can also be grown for spring onions. Harvest the onions when they are still very young and the bulbs have barely developed. Onions have a long growth period, therefore it is important to sow early. Some say it is smart to combine the cultivation of onions with the cultivation of strong-smelling plants such as savory, carrots and chamomile in order to disrupt the onion fly.
