(0 customer reviews)
1015Y. Texas Grano Onion produce softball-sized, straw-colored globes which are heat and drought tolerant. Keeps for months. Short Day. 168 DAYS.
For flavorful bulbs in a hurry, start with onion plants. You’ll harvest onion bulbs just 3 ˝ months after planting.
Tip: ‘Long-day onions’, better suited to the North, need 13+ hours of daylight for best development, while ‘short-day varieties’ need less and thrive in regions with a mild winter climate.
