Description

White Ebenezer Onion is a reliable heirloom onion variety known for its smooth white skin, firm flesh, and mild, clean flavor. The medium-sized bulbs are crisp and slightly sweet, making them excellent for fresh eating, slicing, cooking, and pickling. Their bright color and balanced taste make them a versatile addition to both summer and winter kitchens.

This productive variety is valued for its adaptability, strong yields, and dependable performance in a range of growing conditions. White Ebenezer produces uniform bulbs with good storage potential and has long been favored by gardeners for its consistent quality and ease of cultivation.

Onion sets are small dormant onion bulbs that offer a quicker and more dependable alternative to growing onions from seed. Sets establish rapidly, mature earlier, and are especially useful in shorter growing seasons or cooler climates. Their vigorous early growth helps reduce problems with uneven germination and gives gardeners an easier path to producing full-sized bulbs with less maintenance.

• Type: Biennial grown as an annual (Allium cepa)
• Plant sets: Early spring as soon as soil can be worked
• Sun: Full sun
• Spacing: 4–6 inches
• Days to maturity: 80–100 days from sets

Onions grow best in fertile, loose, well-drained soil with consistent moisture during active growth. Keep beds weed-free to minimize competition and encourage strong bulb formation. Harvest when tops begin to yellow and fall over, then cure bulbs in a dry, airy location before storing in a cool, well-ventilated space for long-lasting use.
