My second best onion next to Walla Walla for size, beauty and sellability. Grew great. I grow all my onions in black plastic; plants planted with a jab seeder through the plastic, drip lines underneath.

A good onion for keeping. Rather large and quite sweet for a storage onion. I have kept these until march with no problem. Not the best sandwich onion but great for cooking and salads.
