| Green onions from Egyptian Walking Onions |
Nice to have some scallions from the garden this time of year. These were Egyptian Walking onions, that I did not pull out. They resprouted and are beginning to be big enough to eat.
The onion bed is starting to grow. Planted roughly 5 weeks ago. At the end is a row of cilantro, about an inch tall, planted the same time. The Egyptian Walking onions are all up.

The Yellow Potato onions are starting to grow. Most are still not showing above ground.
The garlic, planted about 4 weeks ago, is several inches tall. Right on schedule.
Yesterday I cleared out a 3-foot by 4 foot section of the tomato bed. I added 1/2 bag of chicken compost, and planted shallots. The shallot starts were saved from this summer. I planted 4 rows. That is from the original 2 rows. About the same amount is available for eating. Starting them later this year. These shallots might have been larger, if I didn't let them go to seed. The honeybees loved the flowers, so I didn't want to remove the flower heads.
