Back pre-Y2K a friend of ours gave us a handful of onion bulbs and warned us they would spread - it is a perennial. I planted them in a corner on the side of the house and soon decided they had to be transplanted to a more permanent spot in the garden, which I did. The next year I picked a small boxful of bulbs and sent them to a correspondant in Texas. I'm sure by now they have covered half the state
These onions are very good as green onions (scallions) when you get them early but they turn tough when they start bulbing at the TOP of the stem. I guess thats where they get the name "walking onion". When I transplanted them into a 15-foot-long bed that I had constructed from old broken up sidewalk concrete, they were in one corner and now have spread to about 3 feet of the bed.
