They both intrigue (cant think of a word, I think they are cool/fascinating, been drinking) me. Both can be regrown every year, the walking ones will do it themselves, hence the name. Multipliers you plant a bulb, grows a bunch more underground like taters, and then when you dig them up save the best ones for planting next year. All onions I've seen grow above ground.

We plant Copra yellow onion and red zeppelin red ones, they will stay good for eating for over six months, copra says a year never had them last that long. We can't grow the same onions successfully Bama, you grow short day varieties don south, we grow long day, and they are known as better keepers for some reason must know cold and snow is coming Lol!

I do love Vidalia onions though, make great fried blooming onions. There sweet also, copras are pungent, great for cooking but if you want to put them in a salad you better be light on them they have bite.

Oh, and it was Dixondale Farms, not Dixon. Best place to get onion bunches of plants.
 
Hmm, I was wondering how high I was, wiki says 1500, another find your elevation site says our town is 1298, I know were higher than those in town so I checked topo map, we get up to 2,000 feet and I'm in the foothills of our mountains, where I work ten miles away 2,400.
Were all pretty high!

Edited to add, go a few miles further and it's over 4,000, still looking

Having a hard time figuring out where we live, lines stop after 1,600 on the puter, we live in a valley and have a endless supply of water thanks to a artesian well.

I have a seemingly endless water supply as well... 250ft deep well... The way I can abuse water and never run out out is crazy... I try to respect it because I'm well aware of what others have... Not much...
One day I'll have to get pics of the mountains here ( speaking of elevation)... Man there are some fanominal veiws... Snow cap peaks surround some areas... A Seriously beautiful place I live... In the summer any way.

I have never met an onion I didnt like. I am new to growing them though.
 
My parents hated onions, said it was like eating dead flies, their nuts I love them. I could eat them on everything.

Alaskan, keep posting pics like that and I might be your new neighbor Lol!
