I'd never seen it before, but it apparently comes in white and red varieties, and is a perennial bunching onion, which you harvest by pulling up individual shoots, which look like what we call green onions.<BR/><BR/>I just cooked some up this evening, and was planning to write a post about them -- mine are about to be in flower.<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/>LisaLisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06657232418012801175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8071315363222503671.post-6323905074127362602008-04-13T15:30:00.000+00:002008-04-13T15:30:00.000+00:00PaulaAs you say, chop from above the roots and use...Paula<BR/>As you say, chop from above the roots and use the green leaves as well. let me know how you get on.<BR/><BR/>Like your blog too - I'm a hat wearing gardener myself!

I saw the seed packet and thought they'd be handy year round in the garden. I have a couple sprouts now. <BR/><BR/>To use them, do you chop them from just above the roots and into the greens? Or do you just use the greens? Nice, blog too. - PaulaPetunia's Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02294826235747207917noreply@blogger.com
