Description
Revered for its uniformity, Texas Legend onions are a pollinator for hybrid varieties grown in Vidalia, GA. Specifically bred for more healthful benefits than its parent variety, the original 1015Y Texas Supersweet, Texas Legend onions are still as mild and sweet! Texas Legend onions actually contains 25 active compounds that inhibit the growth of cancerous cells, help combat heart disease, and stimulate the immune system. It is also antibacterial and anti-fungal, to help ward off colds and relieve stomach upset and other gastrointestinal disorders. The Texas Legend onion matures 10 to 14 days earlier than the 1015Y Texas Supersweet and it is ideally suited for growing in the short day region. If planted early, it is widely adaptable to all short day and intermediate day growing areas. This onion plant variety one gives you a nice, globe-shaped, sweet, yellow onion that is open pollinated (meaning they are pollinated by wind, insects, or animals). Texas Legend onions also have anti fungal and anti bacterial properties to help combat colds and relieve tummy aches and other disorders of the gastrointestinal type. In the correct growing conditions, you should expect yields of 6″ onions, around 105 days after planting from transplants.

I grew this variety in my North Texas, zone 8a garden this past season and it has become my favorite yellow onion! The size was better (larger) than any variety I have ever grown and I don’t grow for size, only for use. They taste great! It is definitely my preferred yellow onion from this point forward.

My first time ordering from Dixondale. I’m definitely impressed. I ordered the short day onion variety bundle and the texas legend onions. The Texas legend and the white onion blew me away this year. I’m forever a customer. Great job Dixondale.

Dixondale is the best! I have been ordering from them for several years and they always deliver. I have planted the Texas Legend onions exclusively for the last few years as they produce sweet onions that store well! I highly recommend Dixondale and Texas Legend.

We tried the sampler pack prior to running across these. These grew and kept wonderfully last year. We ran out of onions so ordered more this year! Great onions!! We failed growing onions for 3 years prior to finding Dixondale Farms!! We follow the planting instructions included in the box.
