Ailsa Craig forms huge, straw-coloured globes up to 20cm (8") in diameter. They are firm with mild, sweet flesh, for fresh use and short storage. This customer favourite is fine textured, and excellent for salads and sandwiches. It is tolerant of cold weather, so it can be ready for harvest before some other Spanish storage onions. Ailsa Craig is a stony island in the Firth of Clyde in Scotland.
