Notes
'Yago' onion (Allium cepa 'Yago') is a vegetable for food gardens, borders, and containers. It is typically grown as an annual. It is one of the more cold-hardy crops and can keep growing through light freezes with some winter protection. This plant likes full sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. Yago matures in 55 days and has a fragrant, arching habit.
Pairs well with Ghost pepper, Sweet Success cucumber, and Salad burnet.
