Why Gardeners Love Walking Onions
What are Walking Onions?
Walking onions are a unique onion variety that grows and multiplies year after year. Instead of flowering, they produce small bulbs on top of tall stalks. As the bulbs grow heavier, the stalk bends, allowing them to “walk” and replant nearby. At the base of the plant, multiple bulbs form over time and can be divided as the clump expands.
How Walking Onions Multiply
-
Early spring growth
Green shoots emerge early each spring, often before many other garden plants.
-
Bulbs Form on Top
Small bulbs form on top of tall stalks. These bulbils can fall and grow into new plants nearby or be collected and planted.
-
Naturally Multiply
Over time, multiple bulbs form at the base of the plant and may become visible at the soil surface, creating dense clumps that eventually need dividing.
