Riverside (Yellow Spanish)

Riverside is the standard for yellow Spanish type onions. They are a large sweet fast growing variety.

Growing Instructions:

  • Onions are one of the few plants we recommend breaking the core fibre pot apart for planting.
  • Onions need to be placed in about 6" apart in garden rows or spaced in a container to give them room to grow.
  • Best in warm sunny conditions with a little extra nitrogen fertilizer early.
  • Onions can be planted the first of May and are cool hardy.
  • Fertilize early with nitrogen based fertilizer.
  • Don't let onions get wilted, they have a shallow root system so will dry out earlier than many other plants.
  • Keep the soil loose and weed free with frequent hoeing.
  • Harvest onions in mid September. Do not let them be hit with frost before harvest.
