@fb89e58f838b7d716a88300ea1f2539fff78766aa1121ec10968b6b10a498f28 My potato onions have made it through the winter (thank you!), but what do I actually do with them in terms of harvesting? Dig the whole thing up and replant the biggest one? And when?

Yeah the big tubers should split and divide out, a bit like when you leave garlic in the ground from last year but they far are more onion like. They wont get as big as a typical onion but more shallot sized. They are usually fatten out in late spring early summer. So harvest when you like to be honest I forgot about them for a while so they just sat there doing their own thing and still came back. Like garlic the more you divide the more you get.The walking onion have survived well here too thanks for that.

@fb89e58f838b7d716a88300ea1f2539fff78766aa1121ec10968b6b10a498f28 Good, glad it’s doing ok! You can take leaves the first year, by year two or three the flower bulbs will be pearl onion sized and worth the effort of peeling.
