How to plant
Plant the bulbs 1 inch (2.5 cm) deep and spaced 4 inches (10 cm) apart.
Use well-drained, light soil to promote good growth.
Water lightly after planting and keep the soil moist but not excessively so.
Culture and maintenance
Water regularly to prevent the soil from drying out, especially in hot weather.
Apply a light layer of mulch to retain moisture and limit weeds.
Harvest as you go : you can cut the green stems without pulling up the bulb to prolong production.
If you let the bulbs grow, they will produce small white onions to harvest later.
