Everwilde Farms - 1 Oz Big Rainbow Heirloom Tomato Seeds - Bulk Seed Packet
Heirloom Perennial Bulbs"Egyptian Walking OnionsAllium cepa, Proliferum1 Full Ounce  (28+ Grams)Egyptian topsetting onions, also known as tree or walking onions, are very hardy perennials and easily live through our very hard northern Wisconsin winters and our super hot summers. This is the only onion that tolerates high heat and drought conditions well. The bulbils that you will receive are a beautiful distinctive deep red color. Egyptian Walking onions are a prolific producer of delicious, sweet onions that you can harvest all year long. The plants will produce several bulbs at the base of the plants, plus nice reddish hazelnut-sized bulblet clusters that form at the top of each seed stalk.  Make sure to replant your bulbet clusters every year to keep your Walking Onion patch going!!  Once planted, these walking onions will be a continuous source of onions for eating and cooking! We find that their flavor of the bulbs are similar to shallots, and the bulbets have a slightly "spicy" flavor and are great for pickling! These great Perennial onions are something that we will ALWAYS have as part of our garden! They are super easy to grow, and once you plant them you never really have to plant onions again. Each bulb that you grow will produce anywhere from 5-35 topsetting bulbs the following season. When the bulbs grow at the top of your plant, the plant will get top heavy fall over and plant itself, hence the term "Walking onions"! There are approximately 20-35 bulblets per ounce, but this will vary based on seasonal conditions.I have included pictures of the dry bulbs, of the growing bulbsAND pictures of the finished product that you will be harvesting with a coin in the photo for size reference.When your bulbs arrive, separate any clusters into individual bulbs and plant them 1-2" deep and about 5-6 inches apart.Keep the ground moist until they sprout.Our Walking onions are grown organically, so NO pesticides or chemical fertilizers are ever used!
