Narrative
Short day onion. A yellow, intermediate variety for spring-seeding or transplanting. Maturity from seeding is about mid July. When transplanted, it matures in late June. It is highly resistant to pink root disease, and produces high yields on pink root infested soils. Bulbs are predominately medium depth globe shape, and firm. Scale color is light yellow (straw colored), similar to Sweet Spanish varieties, and only slightly darker than the grano types like NuMex BR1 or NuMex Sunlite. Necks are small. Foliage color is medium green, similar to that of most Sweet Spanish types.
