#Merced #Atwater #Mariposa #LasBanos Last, LAST call for onions. Our onion distributor has informed us that due to a crop failure, they will not be able to deliver any more onions this year. So far, we have kept customers happy with the quantities and varieties of onions that they needed. BUT we are down to our last shipment. We still have some bulk bundles of Walla Walla, and Sweetpak onions (50 per bundle), and some Yellow, White and Red Stocktons in 6 packs (which due to multiple seeds typically have up to 30 onion starts in the six pack). Hurry, we hate disappointing our customers counting on onions from us! The varieties we have(had!) (Early Burger was an improved Stockton Red...use the Stockton Red description for information about Early Burger Reds). Walla Walla Mild and Juicy Sweet Onion Famous crisp and juicy sweet onion that is mild enough to be eaten raw. They are relatively low in sulfur, making their flavor very mild. Since their water content is about 85%, they are juicy. However, because of these traits, their storage capacity is limited to just a couple of months. Unless you have atmosphere-controlled coolers to extend their market season, they must be considered seasonal and perishable. • Light brown skin, light flesh • Very cold hardy • Intermediate to long-day variety • 100-125 days Red Burger Productive and Vigorous An improved variety of the Stockton red onion. • Intermediate day variety • Early, deep red, flat shape and sweet • Productive and resistant to bolting • 172 days SweetPak Yellow Good Keeping Variety An excellent sweet and mild yellow onion with brown skin. The SweetPak is an improved variety of the Stockton Yellow onion. • Produces medium-large bulbs with a flattened shape • Mild flavor and firm flesh • Good keeper • Intermediate to short-day variety • 170 days Italian Red Torpedo A Sweet and Mild Red Onion Red onions are an Italian specialty.
