Cippolini. Been looking around and yes, some of these do seem to be what
I found at that roadstand. Thanks a bunch! (pun intended).

I know, I know. This post should be about potatoes, but it's not. Last
summer when visiting PEI I stopped at a roadside farm stand and picked
up various items for that evening's dinner. Among these were a bunch of
small, squat, greenish white onions. As it was an honor system farm
stand I was unable to inquire about what variety of onions these may
have been. Anybody know? Thought I'd try to plant some this year.

Thanks,

There are quite a few possibilities. You may want to start looking
among the cippolini types. Most are yellow skin, but whites do exist.
