I read your Q&A page on the internet about Egyptian Onions, but I need just a bit more info. I ordered this plant from you last year and it is growing very enthusiastically in spite of a move earlier this Spring. Initially, it formed the little 'paper' covered bulbs at the stem tips. As I was wondering when to pick those and how big they would get, they popped open to reveal a combination of very small bulblets anchored at the base of the 'paper' covering and little bulblets at the tips of new green shoots. My question is: which part do we eat? The anchored bulblets? The bulblets at the ends of the little shoots? The little shoots? All of the above?All of the above.
I was pleased with the order you sent last year ... a couple of the plants didn't make it, but the rest are thriving and a wonderful addition.
