Great germination

I got 90% germination on these seeds. I have Patterson onions in storage in mid-February that I grew last Summer, so yes, Patterson's are long-keepers.

Loves these Onions!

Patterson onions have become my go-to for long day onions here in MA. They grow great, and store for months, even when storage temps are maybe a bit warmer than they ought to be.

Finally Found!

Finally found what had been "Copra" in looking through Seeds n Such! We were sad we couldn't find this long keeper for a long time. Just found one last one down in the pumphouse and it's still good and firm from last fall! "Patterson" is a great, long lasting onion!

Poor germination

I planted in January and only got maybe 30-40% to germinate. This was my first time trying a hybrid onion seed and may be the last if the onions latter are not great. I heirloom onions at least have an 80% germination rate and they taste good too. I guess time will tell if the hybrids are worth the price.

Jury is out yet

This is the first year that I have started this variety from seed. Word of mouth is the are a good keeper but I couldn't say because I got the seed a month ago and planted. When I got the packet, I got bad vibes as it said 70% germination. Well actually I am not sure it was 50%. It is okay because I will get the number of plants I want but it still is disappointing. I will further my review at season's end.
