How to the Grow and "Walk"?
While this allium produces the fat, tasty bulb we associate with all onions, it also creates miniature “onions” at the end of long, green stalks that are called “topsets” or “bulbils.”
When the bluish green stalk gets top-heavy, the stalk falls over, creating new roots and a new plant where the bulbs touch the ground. One Egyptian walking onion plant can travel 24 inches (61 cm.) each year, resulting in up to six new plants.
