Onions

I really like onions and eat lots from Fall through Spring. Last year I planted sets and they turned out ok - not too many of the baseball sized ones I was hoping for. Someone told me that the biggest sized bulbs can from plants and so this year, I'm putting out plants along with Shallots, Bunching seeds onions, and Garlic.

I like a good variety of onions so I got 50 each of Walla Walla, Mars (red) and Cora for overwinter. The Garlic just came from the grocery and was planted last Fall. This is the first time I've tried Shallots and Garlic - but both look to be a good addition to the allium bed. With the 150 plants I'll put in I hope to get about 50 nice onions to overwinter and share.
