How Do You Grow Egyptian Walking Onions?
Egyptian Walking Onions don’t really walk, of course, but if left to naturalize on their own, the tops will gently bend until they touch the ground and the bulbs will take root; walking their way across your garden or yard in successive years. The joy of these unique onions is that they produce tiny onion bulbs right on the top of the plants where you can easily grab a quick onion for your favorite recipe. Left to grow, these little onions provide you with a wonderful supply of onion sets to begin new plants in the spring after you have harvested and eaten the larger onions growing underground. Step 1 Prepare an area that receives at least 6 hours of direct sunlight everyday. Till to a depth of 8 to 10 inches and remove any rocks or other debris that surfaces. Rake smooth with a garden rake. Step 2 Mark the row for your onions with the edge of a garden hoe. You don’t need a deep furrow for onions. A depth on 1 inch is all that is needed. Step 3 Add plenty of compost and work it in well
