interesting, maybe...

I assume you eat the shoots. But for bulbs, do you eat the bottom, the top or both? And how big and easy are they to peel? I discontinued multiplier onions, despite their ruggedness, because it was work to peel such small onions.

Both, at times.

Yes, the shoots are by far the best feature, IMO. The bulbils are convenient when young and largely skin-less, otherwise I don't spend the time to bother with them for cooking. One of these springs I'll get around to pickling the young bulbils which was apparently one of the main uses for walking onion a century ago.

Thanks for the video & thanks for the starts! An onion that's going to plant itself throughout my yard is definitely a plant for me.

How are they different than Evergreen bunching onions? anyone grown both?

Someone introduced these to me as Egyptian onions, maybe from the image of bent elbows and wrists, and sideways heads on ancient tomb murals. You can eat every part of these and they grow, transplant and spread very easily. I use them in my flower garden too - decorative!

Good grief, I thought that video annoying! Couldn't even watch but 30 seconds! But your post did interest me enough to do some research...and I think I might try this veggie! Thanks for posting about this.

Ok, send an sase to P.Brown po box 2492 tisbury ma 02568

4 stamps fetches just shy of 5 oz (including package) and 5 stamps just shy of 7oz.

sherm, did you get yours yet?

Yes, Pat, I got them. I think I need to wait until the fall to plant them, which should give me time to clear out a spot in my croded garden. Thanks again for sharing!

I grow scallions, and just keep cutting them off and letting them re-grow all season. One small container is all the scallion I need for myself.

*crowded* sorry for the typo!
