Walla Walla Plants Onion
Best sweet onion choice for northern home vegetable gardeners.
These seedlings deliver the gold standard of sweetness for your summer salads and fresh cooking. Because they lack the long-term storage capabilities of pungent varieties, you trade shelf life for a mild, crisp flavor that simply cannot be replicated by grocery store onions.
