Description: These are Egyptian Onions often called Winter Onions by our pioneer ancestors as they were one of the first edible produce in the spring. You receive 10 bulbs similar to those in the pictures to keep in the kitchen for snipping off while cooking. I like to keep a small pot of them handy while cooking and call these "Kitchen Nippers". I like to trim and use the greens for various dishes, they will grow back in a short time. Easy to grow indoors or outdoors, they are winter hardy to zone 2. If you are limited for space or have a large area to plant, they will do the trick. Just plant, water and mother nature will do the rest. One of my favorite ways to use these is grill them with a little salt, pepper and olive oil. They are hard to beat that way! Please note the garden claw to get an idea of what they can do for size when planted outdoors. They do not get a large head but more like the size of a leek or shallot when mature. These are great for those seeking to recreate the "pioneer" garden of yesteryear. ** Summer is here you will receive sets that have woke up sprouted and in some cases have roots. If they don't yet have a root they will when planted. They want to grow so the best thing is plant them ASAP** Free US shipping. Sorry no international sales.
