Onion, Sweet (bushel)

Sweet onion is a delicious addition to the garden, especially for those who love to cook! This tasty onion has more residual sugar than average onions offering exquisite flavor, particularly when caramelized or roasted. Sweet onions may also be canned, pickled, or enjoyed raw. They store well when braided and are well-adapted to northern climates.
