White Sorts 
SOUTHPORT WHITE GLOBE 
110 Days—This standard variety is the best 
of the white onions. Our strain produces 
uniform globe-shaped bulbs, handsome in ap¬ 
pearance, and commanding higher prices as a 
market onion. It is a fair keeper, perhaps the 
best of the white varieties for Winter storage, 
but, like all white onions, not so long-keeping 
as the yellow. Bulbs medium sized, solid, sil¬ 
very white, with thin skin. Flesh waxy white, 
fine grained and of a delicious mild flavor. 
WHITE SILVER SKIN OR PORTUGAL 
100 Days—This popular and largely used 
onion is used for growing white onion sets, 
small picklers, early bunching green onions 
and for producing large onions the same sea¬ 
son. A dependable cropper and fair keeper. 
Matured onions are medium sized, pure white, 
thick-flat; flesh fine grained, firm, hard and 
of a mild, delicate flavor. 
EARLY WHITE BARLETTA 
88 Days—Regarded as the earliest variety in 
cultivation. It is a grand onion for pickling 
purposes and if sown thickly in rows will pro¬ 
duce small, nearly round, onions the size of 
marbles. When the crop matures the tops 
die down close to the bulb, leaving the most 
perfect miniature onions imaginable, ranging 
from 1 to lj /2 ins. in diameter. Pure paper- 
white color, exceedingly mild and delicious in 
flavor. 
Early White Barletta 
HARDY WHITE BUNCHING 
60 Days for bunching —The earliest and best 
white bunching onion. This variety does not 
form bulbs and is used exclusively for early 
green onions or scallions. Recommended as 
a money maker for market gardeners. Sow 
the seed thickly in rows in the late Spring or 
early Summer and earth up gradually to 
blanch the stalks as far up as possible. They 
will then produce single long white tender 
shoots which are brittle and mild in flavor. 
Seeds may be sown as late as August or Sep¬ 
tember. Very hardy and will withstand Winter 
better than any variety of white bunch onion.

sweet and really a delicately flavored mild 
onion.

EXTRA EARLY 
WHITE PEARL 
90 Days—Beside being largely 
used for pickling and sometimes 
for early green onions, it is one 
of the best varieties for the 
South. Very early, almost trans¬ 
parent as a pearl, the bulbs are 
small, flat, pure white and of a 
mild and pleasant sweet flavor.
