Purple onions are an everyday staple in my diet. I eat mine raw with whatever else I'm eating. Supposed to be good for neuropathy.

Hey, Kaye!
I currently have a pot of green onions that I grew from the root-ends.
Hoping to keep an endless supply!

Wow - had no idea you could restart onions like that! I have a small wire basket I put my onions in and often I have sprouts coming out of several of them. Usually I just try to use them up but next time I will use your method of separating the roots and planting outdoors. Thanks for the demo and sending prayers to mom..

Started gardening at 6 years old with parents ( will be 62 in two weeks so that is 56 years of gardening! ) and never knew this!! I love getting new information on ways to garden because it can save money and time...not to mention preserve the old ways! Thank you, Kaye.

Also, I love the purple onion on the red table and your purple plaid shirt as a I love color therapy and this is like food for the eyes. :-)

Make sure you record the growth and harvest to make a documentary video at the end.

I watched a gardener 6b, plant onions now, mulch and harvest bigger onions next spring. I am getting ready to do the same.

Missouri zone 6b here & had planted onions in 2023 that did not grow well but survived a hard freeze winter & grew back in 2024 in nice size bulbs, so yes they can overwinter in the ground. Note: just a couple didn't grow back & turned to mush, but the majority did grow back. These were planted in raised beds too, I also had a couple in ground that did well & either went to seed or formed a new bulb. Just keep the seed shoot cut if you want the bulbs to develop. Glad you posted this Kaye, good to know, thank you.

Hi Kaye, that was so interesting. I can't wait to get home in Tennessee so I can have a small garden next year. Love you.

[kathymcintire]

When you were cutting the dirty looking bottoms at the roots I literally couldn't watch 😲 I just knew your knife was going to slip and that would be all she wrote for the onion roots ☺ but what a cool idea, I've never heard of this before, and the sprouts, yep I'm thinking the same, thanks for the video Kaye I always learn something useful on your channel, love is the key, always 💞 🧅🧅🧅

[conniemcgehee]

I never knew you could do this. Thanks for the tip on. 😊

[cbass]

Omg…I smelled that onion when you cut it! 🤣🤣

[MissDeb-jqnz]

Just woke up and saw my Late Bloomer first thing! Loved the onion root reveal! 😍

[cindybroadus]

Love onions in everything except desserts. Roasted veggies especially but sweated chopped onions smell so delicious. Great to find out how many plants can be in 1 onion. This is valuable information since we never know what is ahead
