Welsh Onion

Welsh Onion (Allium fistulosum) is a non-bulbing perennial variety that can be harvested whole when young and used as a green onion. Alternately, the baby foliage can be finely minced and used in a similar manner to chives. These are really gorgeous plants to have around the garden, especially in their flowering stage – the bees love them. If some plants are left unharvested they will duplicate around the base of the plants as the season goes on.

70 days from seed for baby/green onions. Perennial.
