Alliums 2026

I tried yanking out the duplicates, but they kept tearing at the base. Hopefully they won’t resprout.

This year I’ve started using the winter growing Allium vineale that’s a common naturalized lawn and garden weed around here. I had always been told they were poisonous but on researching it I’ve find that’s not true. I think I’ll nice a clump or two into a garden bed.

Pretty tasty, halfway between garlic and chives.

I think this year I’ll plant a bunch of perennial alliums for greens. I plan to get regular chives, garlic chives, walking onion, Welsh onion, and maybe ramps. I’m interested in alliums with edible greens, any suggestions?

I was only able to add fertilizer to four beds of onions a bit ago. I haven’t gotten to adding fertilizer to the rest of my onions and garlic with the latter looking a bit yellowish from the tips and the former not as dark green as the others from the four beds.
