Patterson Hybrid Onion is a sweet, firm onion with straw-colored skin and yellowish flesh. Each 4 oz. onion matures into a very uniform shape and size. Similar to Copra, yet slightly larger with an overall higher yield, Patterson has an extremely long shelf life, allowing for months of fresh, flavorful eating.
