Cipollini onions from Italy. Walmart sells the seed and has anyone had good or bad luck trying to plant and grow these in a Georgia type climate? Thanks.
Cipollini are long day onions, so they are going to do better up north. Vidalia onions are mainly of the Granex variety, which are short day onions. Short day onions do better in the south. So you are really comparing apples to oranges.
I'd try them, you've got nothing to lose. Maybe they won't do as well as they could, or maybe they won't develop onions at all. Hard telling. But it's fun to experiment. After reading about them, I'm trying some in my garden this year.

I'd try them, too. Worst case, you get a bunch of nice green onions anyway.
