Medium-sized onion. Good keeper, but does not store quite as long as the yellow onions. Reliable variety with flattened bulbs and a mild flavor. Slow to bolt. Each bulb can weigh more than 1 pound. White,Yellow papery wrap and a slightly sharp, clean, flavor. Used extensively in Mexican cooking.

The Snowball White Onion is our most popular onion set! This variety is always crisp and delicious! The Snowball White's big bulbs have a lovely golden yellow, white papery skin on the outside with a pale yellow flesh with a mild flavor that is great for cooking.
