ESPANOLA, YELLOW SWEET SPANISH. 
This outstanding large mild variety will under favorable 
conditions produce bulbs 5 inches or more in diameter, and 
equal in every respect to the fine flavored imported onions. 
Espanola produces heavy yields, and is suitable for both 
muck and upland soils. It is a good keeper, and although a 
little later than the standard globe-shaped varieties, is so 
vigorous and hardy that it withstands unfavorable growing 
conditions better than other types. The bulbs are globular in 
shape, and well covered with a light coppery yellow skin. 
The flesh is waxy white, solid, tender, and of mild delicate 
flavor.
