Living in beautiful BC since 1968, left the USA during the Vietnam War. I used to think I might go back someday.
Now retired and living on a small acreage
Into gardening, baking, bugs, puzzles.
Trying to find a way to keep sane

If you’re wondering what to do with your sprouted onions, plant them in your vegetable or flower/herb garden. They most often produce beautiful flowers,very attractive to pollinators . Sometimes they will also produce more onion bulbs.

Grown from seed, as easy as zinnias and I like to use a packet of open pollinated varieties, mixed colours. Fun to be surprised by what appears.

Summer is definitely over, no real killing frost yet but some light ones.
