Onions.........


This summer my brother Ron from Arizona handed me some onion bulbs that were all connected together naturally.  He had received them as a gift from an Asian woman neighbor and he liked growing them.  So he gave me a cluster to start myself.  I broke them all apart and put them in some soil intended for growing violets.  The dining room window is a great place for them to get started. As you can see in two weeks I have onions.  I am curious to see if they put seed heads on the tips of the plant.  I will keep you posted.

Keep us posted. They look great in the sunny window.

This might be a new trend... the cook of the house wouldn't have to go far to get an onion.

I am anxious to see how they grow.

What a great idea. Keep us posted. I like the idea of being able to harvest green onions from my window sill, but I suppose it doesn't really represent any savings.

How about that an onion farm in your window..I think you need a greenhouse:)

The Down Path

 The backyard stairs to the back of my property still has lots of snow on it. It is in too much shade to really melt. We almost made it to 6...
