I'm looking for potato onions/multiplier onions, preferably a large amount. Have plenty of Egyptian walking onions to trade. I don't have any bulbils left, but will trade parent plants. Now is still a great time to plant for me. Hopefully can trade before very cold weather arrives in your part of the country so I can ship safely. The ground doesn't freeze here, so I can still plant later in the fall/winter if I have to. Looking to trade bulb for bulb, any amount.

Hi, Newbie here, Do you still have some walking onions? I don't have much to trade or will you do a sasbe offer? Thank you,

I have one row of Egyptian onions in my garden. The row has been there for 5 years. I don't want them walking, so I take all the bulb-lets off in the fall and store them in my basement. Two week ago I potted the clusters up into 5 inch pots, covering with 2 inches of pro-mix. The bulb-lets had already started to sprout about 1/2 inch. They are outside now in zone 5. They will be about 6 inches tall when I take them to the Farmer's Market May 1st. Many of them have 6-8 bulb on each. I don't separate them. Wish I knew how to post a picture. Please don't try to explain how, I'll never get it.

So how does that work, exactly? Do I break off the bulbils and separate them, then place them in a vessel where they just float in water, or should I have part of the stem under the bulbil and let that absorb water? Perhaps just growing them in a dish with moist soil (for transplant later) would do the trick?
