Welsh Onion – Allium fistulosum

A great culinary herb to grow. A bulbous perennial that remains green all year.

Creamy white flowers in summer. Use the leaves as an alternative to chives or pull the bulblets like a spring onion. A substitute for spring onions too, try in stir fry or salad dishes.

Grow in well drained, fertile soil. Alternatively grow in containers but water and feed regularly.

Surprisingly, the Welsh Onion actually comes from Siberia!

This wee onion is very cute attractive addition to my backyard herb garden. Plant arrived in perfect condition and was over 20cm tall. Delivery was faster than expected and well packed so the plant wasn’t damaged. Would highly recommend!
