HOW KELLER ONION PLANTS 
ARE PACKED ... 
Our plants are packed in sturdy well ventilated 
flat crates as shown in photographs. They are 
packed 60 bunches to a crate with approximately 
one hundred plants to the bunch. 
Promptly upon receipt of your plants you should 
open, all crates and store in a cool, dry, well venti- 
lated place. Improper ventilation in express cars 
sometimes causes heating. Dry or wilted tops, 
however, do not harm the growing qualities of the 
plants. 
Onion plants may be transplanted quite early 
in the season. While best results are obtained from 
plants not set back by a real hard freeze, these 
hardy plants will withstand heavy frosts and pretty 
hard freezes. When transplanting, plants should be 
spaced four or five inches apart and in rows wide 
enough to permit good cultivation.
