HARDY BUNCHING ONIONS 
These varieties of onions are grown for use as scallions or green bunching onions. 
They are perennial and produce for many years as long as a portion of the plant is 
allowed to remain. Sow in the spring or summer and harvest in the fall or early the 
following spring. Plants increase in size as they grow older, and thinning to eight 
to twelve inches between plants is advised after the first year. In the northern part 
of the country protection during the winter with a mulch of straw or leaves will 
make the crop earlier. 
699 Japanese Long Bunching Q 
95 days. Tender, of fine flavor, long standing, and larger than other bunching 
onions. Does not form a bulb but produces scallions late in the fall or, if wintered 
over, very early in the spring. Fully grown scallions are nearly 1 in. across. 
Pkt. lOfi;; oz. 35^!; 4 ozs. $1.00; 1/2 lb. $1.65; lb. $3.00. 
698 White Welsh 
95 days. Does not form a large bulb, but the thick white shoots are used for bunch¬ 
ing and early green onions. Perfectly hardy, mild, and very early. Pkt. 10^.

for seed production.
