Onion Sets White Snowball (Pack of 75)
Great Keeper and Good for Pickling
White Snowball onion sets are a dependable and easy-to-grow option for gardeners seeking mild, sweet onions with fine-grained flesh and excellent keeping quality. This long-day variety is well-suited to northern and central climates, where extended daylight promotes firm bulb formation and crisp, clean skins.
This one has thin translucent white skins that are not noticeable, so there is less waste preparing the scallions for the kitchen. These sets produce medium-sized, flat onions with a delicate texture—ideal for pickling, fresh slicing, or adding to a wide variety of culinary dishes. Their mild flavor and tender bite make them perfect for fresh salads, cooking, or caramelizing.
Plant the sets 1 inch deep and about 4 inches apart in fertile, well-draining soil. White Snowball onions thrive in full sun, consistent moisture, and are hardy in USDA Zones 3–9. Their early maturity and reliable growth make them an excellent choice for spring planting, ensuring one of the first fresh harvests of the season.
This variety also stores well when properly cured, offering an extended harvest window and a pantry staple that lasts for months. Whether grown in rows, raised beds, or borders, these sets deliver dependable yields for growers of all experience levels.

We guarantee the perishable items we sell to be in good, viable condition when we sell them. Perishable items include, but are not limited to, garlic bulbs, flower bulbs, seed potatoes, onion sets & transplants, potted or bare root trees, vegetable crowns, etc. If your perishable item arrives in substandard condition, take photographs and please contact us within 3 days of the purchase date (or delivery date) and we will provide you with a refund of the purchase price (excluding shipping costs), or a replacement. Accordingly, we urge you to open any boxes marked as ""Perishable"" immediately upon receiving them and inspect the shipment thoroughly (do not crack open heads of garlic, we do not accept claims on cracked garlic). Because some perishable items can deteriorate very quickly, we cannot accept any claims beyond the 3-day time frame as it becomes too difficult to determine if these items were delivered in substandard condition, or if they turned into such substandard condition because of having been improperly cared for or stored once delivered.
