Alliums.. Not just for flowers!

Alliums as garden flowers have continued to soar in popularity, year on year.. And no wonder; the brilliant array of colors and forms available, plus an reliable appearance at Chelsea Flower Show, mean that these ornamental members of the ever-brilliant Onion Family are being planted in their droves right now.
So let's not forget their functional cousins! The ones we can actually eat!
​

Garlic, Shallots, Red, White and Brown Onions.. All of these can and should be going in the ground now too. Yes, they can be planted in Spring, but for the fattest results (and the greater choice in variety) then you should be looking at an autumn planting.
They are some of the easiest, tolerant, most well-behaved veggies you can grow.

I never knew Onion has a cousin! This really amazed me a lot. I don't know why but this is very funny for me too. This actually made me love planting even deeper. I am now on the process of expanding my garden and I knew I would definitely include this on my list of the plants I will be adding on my collection. I just wish I can easily learn how to plan and to take care of these plants. With that being said, I will be highly suggesting you to post or share some videos that will teach us take good care of these living things.
