Originating in France, 'Hermine' is a relatively new cultivar that will reliably produce mildly flavoured white shallots, which have a distinctly rounded shape. Perfect for eating raw in salads or for cooking - it can even be stored for a short time after harvest. - Garden care: Plant from January to April for harvest from July to September.
