Egyptian Walking Onions
The walking onions are coming along. As you can see they’ve grown a lot since April. I was doing some research and it seems that these are Egyptian Walking Onions. Right now we’re adding the green stalks to our salads but not totally harvesting the onions. We’re hoping to see some of those fantastic topknots of bulbs that we’ve seen in photos. In the fall photo you can just see the beginnings of the topknot.
Here are the ones The Man of the House planted in the fall. As you can see we do have some weeding to do. 🙂
Here is the spring crop.
Wow! They look great. You’ll have to ask your parents where they came from and lemme know 🙂
You ARE a bit further north than I am too… heh

At the beginning of this year I noticed a peculiar plant growing in the corner of my yard. I recently discovered it is a walking onion. This is an amazing plant, it has grown taller than three feet and has been mass producing stalks and bulblets. It has nearly tripled in size in just a few months! I can’t wait to start cooking!
