Green Onion Plant

When I planted the bottom root portion of a few green onion stalks into some dirt, I really didn't know what to expect.  I kinda thought that the stems would grow back, but I didn't know that a few bulbs would appear at the tips.  What a rookie horticulturist, yah!

I think it's so cool.

I like how a few stalks got bent from my watering.  I feel like an ikebana arranger.

My sister Geri said that the seeds will fall to the ground and baby green onions will grow.  I can't wait!

Here's Kona waiting while I take my pictures.
