Walk like an onion

The sun actually came out again today and it was warm, making it an alright day in the lockdown stakes. We noticed that the Egyptian walking onions (above) are starting to form their topsets. We really love these odd onions especially once they start to form their bulbils and drop to the floor ready to start their way slowly around the garden (below from a few years ago). Have a look at the website here to learn more about these strange plants!And through the post today we received a couple of packs of seeds  off Ebay including another favourite of ours, night scented stock. The plant and its flowers are nothing to look at and you could be easily be forgiven to think they were a weed but if you have some of these plants around a opened back door on a warm summer’s evening the smell is something else. Give them a go!

And give this a go, a bonkers version of Green Onions for your listening pleasure.
