  • Bunching onions can be grown in southern states twice per year, in July or August for fall harvest and again in early spring for a summer harvest.

    Bunching onions love company and will grow well planted 1/4" apart in bands of 2-3 inches.

    Cover very lightly and mist to avoid disrupting seeds. If starting indoors, sow 6-8 seeds per cell. Transplant clusters 6" apart with rows 18" apart.

  • All parts of the bunching onion are edible, but the bulb contains the most flavor.

  • The bulb can be elongated by hilling soil around the base of the plants 2-3 times throughout the growing season.
