ONION PLANTS 
Texas Started Plants 
These famous. Texas onion plants produce 
those large, mild, sweet onions that are so diffi- 
cult to grow from seed here in the North, Or 
they can be pulled early for the first young 
green onions on your table. If allowed to de- 
velop, they reach creaming or even slicing size, 
very quickly. Seed is planted for us in Texas 
during the fall and the plants grow during the 
winter so they are hardy and can be lifted and 
shipped early in spring, for Northern planting as 
soon as ground can be worked. Orders accepted 
subject to crop, and are shipped at proper plant- 
ing time.
