I'm in Calgary zone 3b, I've been growing a patch of these for the last few years. I love how hardy they are, this year they were starting under 6 inches of snow! About the first thing to appear each year. I hadn't thought of dehydrating to make onion powder, will give it a try, thanks!

[@CrocGardener]

These things grow like crazy! They are very hardy!!!

Hey there, great video on your walking onions. I subscribed to your channel and have always wanted to grow Egyptian walking onions. I live in Washington state and would love to grow your onions here out west! Thank you.

I pickle mine.

[@CrocGardener]

I really need to tr that!

[@jillmadigan9841]

I know that the 'bulblets; are sharper-flavored than the bottom bulb. Still, I usually give them to neighbors of our Milwaukee (Zone 5b) community garden - sort of Intro to Green Thumb' starter plant. Who doesn't need something that looks like it came directly from Outer Space? If the plants are left to winter-over, the bulbs get significantly larger. Flavor-reviews still pending.

I’ve never tried the little guys just gave em away…. Thanks for watching!

[@vincentgardner7821]

Great video! I subscribed, and I'd love a few bulbs if you have some to share.

[@wendyburston3132]

Would they make nice pickled onions?

[@jillmadigan9841]

The bulblets beg to be pickled and start with a more-intense flavor. But I give 5them away.

[@CrocGardener]

That’s a great idea!!!

[@lisahamilton61]

[@lisahamilton61]
