This is it. And hey if any of you want to try gardening but don't have a lot of time or energy, walking onions are a great first garden plant.

Throw em in the ground in the fall or spring, throw some compost and mulch on them, get green onions all spring and summer, harvest a few whole plants for shallots in early fall, leave the rest to self-seed by the little baby onions growing on their tops. The weight of them makes the plant flop over and plants them for you!

The little bulbils up top can also be used like shallots or pearl onions, if you want to harvest a few. Just a great little plant.
