Welsh Onion - Everlasting Scallion
A member of the Onion family, Welsh onion are well worth cultivating in the vegetable and flower garden.
They take up very little space, and the whole plant can be eaten from top to bottom.
Welsh onion are cultivated both for their culinary uses and their ornamental value; the violet flowers are often used in ornamental dry bouquets.
Welsh onion are perennial evergreen plants, and keep their leaves in most winters.
In colder winters, the leaves may die back completely, but don't despair - their roots are still alive and they will begin new growth next spring.
Always leave some in the ground to multiply. The bulbs multiply quickly over a few years and this bounty of new bulbs provides the easiest method of propagation.
Simply dig up the clump of bulbs in March or October, carefully separate them into individual bulbs and replant with the tips of the bulbs level with the soil surface.
They thrive on this method of propagation, because it relieves the congestion in the bulb clumps.
