Multiplying Spring Onions (Allium schoenoprasum)
Family: Amaryllidaceae
Easy-care Multiplying Spring Onions, also known as Giant Chives, are one of the most productive perennial vegetables you can grow. Hardy, reliable, and long-lived, they form ever-expanding clumps that return year after year with almost no maintenance.
Enjoy a continuous harvest of crisp, mild-flavoured spring onions from September through to May. Simply harvest the largest stems as needed while leaving the smaller ones to continue growing. Each year the clumps become larger and more productive, providing an increasingly abundant supply without the need for repeated sowing, transplanting, or thinning.
Ideal for kitchen gardens, raised beds, food forests, and permaculture systems, Multiplying Spring Onions are frost hardy, easy to divide, and excellent for sharing with friends or expanding your own planting.
Your order includes a healthy starter clump, ready to establish quickly and provide years of reliable harvests. Planting instructions, growing tips, and harvesting advice are provided below.
