A Fine Fragrant Start

Walla Walla onions are sweet onions that were originally imported from the island of Corsica, off the coast of Italy, by a French soldier, into the walla walla valley in Washington.  These are the preferred onions used for making onion rings!

Here, I have some great seedlings coming along.  Just out of curiosity, I pulled one out, and discovered that the very root actually has a distinct onion fragrance, even at this very young stage :)

Below, what the mature onions should look like upon harvest.
