Everything's up in the air


Walk like an Egyptian
If you're still perplexed by the onion depth conundrum, here's a novel solution. These are variously called walking, tree, or Egyptian onions. The onions grow at the end of the stalks. They then develop legs with further onions on them which then plant themselves at whatever depth they feel like in the neighbouring ground. They will also appeal to you microveg growers out there as they never get much bigger than a pickled onion. The onions also multiply themselves in the ground. Once settled in though, they will walk all over you. Hence, I have bulbs available if any of you intrepid onions growers out there who can't get their depth right want to give it a go.
