Garden Use

- Due to its small size, it is also suitable for growing in pots on verandas or balconies.

Major Pests and Control Methods
- Aphids: Infected plants can be controlled by spraying with soapy water or refined vegetable emulsions.
- Soft Rot: This can occur due to excessive moisture, so proper drainage management is important. - Onion maggots: They can damage the bulbs, and bulb disinfectants can be applied for control.
