Thirty four Walla Walla Onion seedlings were planted in the outdoor garden.These onions were started from seed in the greenhouse on 9 January 2013. Onions can withstand some cool temperatures.These onion get large and don’t have a significant bite, almost as mild as a sliced tomato.. They do not store well. The ground temperature at six inches was 10C. Onions were planted at 9 inch centres, and at the same depth as in the pots. The planting was accomplished without disturbing the roots. Pictures depict the operation.
The plants are doing well, surviving a bit of snow, hail and much rain and cool weather.
