If you've been with me for a while, you might remember that last fall, I offered organic walking onion seeds from my own garden. (And they sold out!)

This year, I harvested my seeds earlier so I can bring them to you in time for your fall garden!

Egyptian walking onions are a type of perennial onion that can be harvested for its green stems (like chives or scallions) as well as its bulbs (which kind of resemble shallots).

Walking onions are known (and named) for producing topsets (clusters of baby onions called bulbils) that grow on the end of stiff stalks. As these topsets grow larger and heavier, they cause the stalks to flop over, allowing the bulbils to take root and plant themselves.

This makes them appear to "walk" across your garden as the bulbils turn into new plants, and then those plants produce bulbils that spread by falling over and planting themselves in the soil, which then grow into new plants the following season and so on. (They're not aggressive spreaders, just very easy to propagate.)

I have 3 stands of walking onions in my garden (because I love them THAT much!) and with the hundreds of plants I grow, I have lots of topsets (bulbils) this season that I'd love to make available for anyone who wants to grow these fun and unusual vegetables.

Walking onion bulbils can be planted at any time of year, as long as the ground isn't frozen.

If you plant between now and late summer, you can grow a patch pretty quickly and get a (small) harvest in fall. Or, let the new plants continue establishing roots until they die back in winter, and they'll come back stronger in spring.

I'm selling organically grown Egyptian walking onion topsets, straight from my garden, until my supply runs out this season.

They're available in sets of 10 or 25 bulbils and ship to USA addresses only. (Sorry, international folks—I'm not able to look into agricultural restrictions for different countries.)

I also wrote a full guide to growing walking onions: how to plant them, harvest them, use them, and maintain them each year.

They're super easy for beginners, really fun for kids to grow, and can turn into "forever onions" if you allow them to self-propagate. Pests and critters don't touch them!

Egyptian walking onions are extremely cold-hardy and grow well in zones 3 to 10, which means they'll work in nearly every climate.

I'm in zone 5 and get green onions from my plants all the way through November, when the leaves finally die back after consistent hard freezes. (A good snow cover will prolong the harvest though.) By March, they're one of the first plants in my garden to re-emerge.

If you're not quite ready to plant them in the garden yet, you can plant them in potting soil and transplant in fall. Or, store them in a cool and well-ventilated area for winter (the same way you'd store other onions).

I hope you enjoy these as much as I do!
