Onion Walla Walla Sweet
Great cold hardiness makes it a good choice for short-season climates!
Ultra-mild bulbs mature 2 weeks quicker than other Spanish types!
56 days. If you like sweet onions like the ones grown in Vidalia, Georgia but don't have the short-day climate required to grow them, you'll love this ultra-mild variety from Washington State! Maturing up to 2 weeks sooner than other Spanish types, it's a delicious cold-hardy variety with a flattish shape, tan skin, and white flesh. Sweet enough to eat like an apple, yet with an onion "zing" that adds zest to any dish!
Space plants 2 to 3 inches apart in the garden. If you want crisp, tender green onions, harvest the bulbs just after the swelling begins. For mature bulbs, wait until the tops fall over after the growing season. Then dig up the bulbs, cure for 3 weeks, and store in a cool, dry place.
