ONION Allium cepa The varieties listed in capitals are, in our judgment, the most important. The number of days indicates the time from planting of seed to maturity of bulbs under midwestern and eastern growing conditions. Length of daylight is also a factor in the time required to form bulbs. Days ASGROW 19 90 A hybrid onion of mild, sweet type developed at our Pacific Coast breeding station and grown exclusively by us. Comparable to Early Yellow Globe but earlier, and the bulbs average about 15% heavier, with equal keeping quality. Bulb nearly full globe-shaped, attractive in appearance, uniform and solid. Australian Brown 100 A standard variety, noted for keeping quality, pure lemon-yellow flesh and chestnut-brown scale color. Bulb deep-flat or semi-globular in shape; with tough tight-fitting skin; flavor very strong; flesh cooks rather dark. BRIGHAM YELLOW GLOBE 109 Bulb globular with rounded bottom, a deeper, rounder type than Yellow Globe Danvers; solid, well covered with tight-fitting thick skin; foliage dark green; partially resistant to aphids. Of fine quality. CRYSTAL WAX 93 Sometimes called White Bermuda. Grown extensively in Texas for first early shipments to Northern markets. Bulb very flat, medium sized, clear white; of mild, delicate flavor. The Asgrow strain represents many years of con- tinuous selection. EARLY YELLOW GLOBE 98 An exceptionally good keeper for so early a variety. Bulb medium large in size, yellow, with clinging skin, solid, uniform and attractive. Earliness in maturity insures minimum damage from Asgrow 19, a new hybrid, with parent types in background.
