ONION PLANTS 
Sweet Spanish—Utah Strain 
These plants which are grown in Texas have proved 
excellent for raising both early green onions and dry bulbs for 
late summer sale. When set in the spring, they will produce 
large firm onions of the finest type in 8 to 10 weeks. 
Each year more gardeners find it profitable to grow onions 
from our plants, and our sales have steadily and rapidly in- 
creased, Experience has shown that Sweet Spanish is the only 
satisfactory kind, so we do not offer any other variety. 
Please note: Onion plants are sold on the basis of bunches .* 
only. In Texas they are pulled by the handful, and each hand- \ 
ful is called a bunch. 60 of the bunches are packed in a crate 
and shipped to us. The number of plants in a bunch usually 
runs from 50 to 110 depending largely on the size of the plants, 
ae if is impossible for us to specify the number of plants ina 
unch. oe 
Price: 10 bunches $3.00 transportation paid. Not paid, full 
crate (60 bunches) $10.00. (Weight about 30 lbs. per crate.) 
Write for prices on larger lots, which may be shipped direct 
from Texas. —_—_—————- 
Shipping onion plants: We expect to have onion plants 
ready to ship by April 15th, but we are dependent on the 
Texas conditions and may not have them in until somewhat 
later. They cannot be supplied after May 25th. If you will 
specify on your order when you would like the plants to be 
sent, we will do our best to ship at that time. Because of the 
weather and transportation difficulties, they may not arrive 
promptly, but you may be assured that we are doing every- 
thing we can to get them to you as near the proper time as A Single Bunch of Our Sweet 
possible. Spanish Onion Plants
