... GROW LARGE SWEET ONIONS. 
Southern grown onion plants are rapidly 
displacing onion sets because they will 
grow early, sweet onions two to three 
times larger than sets. 
... PROVIDE SPRING ONIONS OR LARGER BULBS. 
From our plants you may pull green onions as needed before the 
bulb enlarges, or large onions after the bulb has formed. 
..- MAKE GOOD KEEPERS. Piedmont onion plants seldom run to 
seed, and are excellent keepers if you wish to save for winter storing. 
Add zest to your garden with Piedmont onion plants. 
CULTURE—ONIONS— Onions are frostproof and can stand a temperature ten degrees below 
freezing. Prepare land in two-foot rows using one thousand pounds of 4-8-6 fertilizer to the 
acre. Set plants 4 to § inches apart in the row, which requires 50 to 60 thousand plants to the 
acre. Harvest when the tops dry and cure for storage. Dust for onion thrip with 5% DDT or 
Benzine Hexachloride.
