    Texas supersweet onion

    Zone 7a, usually plant around mid to late October with onion sets. Not sure about onion starts. Prefer seeds. Also can the same seeds be planted in early spring with good results?

    Bell Peppers

Not sure why so small, other than maybe to many bell peppers to support large ones. I did have enough to make stuffed bell peppers dinner 2 times...
