Egyptian Walking Onions
Listing is for top sets(bulbils) of walking onions. These are the small onions that grow on top. These are much smaller than the mother plant. Each makes a separate plant. The size is as shown in the picture and may vary based on natural variations. By next year, you will have the mother plants producing greens and top sets in your own garden. I will ship bulblets in the size they are growing at this time of the year.
 
$12 for 1oz of top sets(# in oz depends on size of bulbils)
Discount available for 5 or more ounces

These are a perennial onion, meaning they will continue to grow from the same root system each year. This makes them a fantastic addition to the edible landscape because, once established, all you really have to do is eat them. And there are lots of ways to eat them. I like to tuck them in with other annual crops, in forgotten corners or at the ends of rows.
Eating Egyptian Walking Onions
The Bulbs: once established the bulb growth at the base of the plants can be split and harvested, leaving some of the plant to continue growing. Or you can harvest whole plants like normal onions if you need to thin out your patch.
The Shoots: the green shoots can be used as salad scallions when young, or as they get thicker they can be added to cooked recipes like quiche and soup.
The Bulblets: once the flowers have flowered, tiny onion bulbs will form in a tight cluster, slowly growing in size. These are edible at all stages.
The Bulblet Shoots: if left to grow, the bulblets will send out new green onion shoots, which are tender and tasty.
The Bulblet’s Shoots, Bulblets: OK, so it gets a little crazy, but the you’ll get a second flower set, which will form more bulblets, which will actually send out more tiny onion shoots.
