Life Cycle of Green Onion

Life cycle of the green onions:

• Fresh green onion from grocery store =>
  
• scallion = bunching onion = shallot (in Australia) = spring onion (in Britain) = Chinese onion = stone leek = cibol
  
• Notes: These are onions that have small bulbs and long green stalks. They're usually eaten raw, but you can also grill or sauté them. Some people also use the term green onions to refer to onion tops, shallot tops and young leeks.

• Eat the top green stalks and plant the bottom bulbs.
• It will continue to grow taller green stalks with beautiful white blooms.
• You can harvest the green onion stalks for several meals
• When it gets to the end of season, it will dry out - harvest the bulb to cook.
• Need more green onions? Use those bulbs for the next generation... or restart the whole cycle...
