Little Vegetables - Onion Traditional Cache

This Vegetable Trail complements RowenaD's nearby Fruit Trail. All are simple hides that you can drive or bike to. The road passes sheep farms, vineyards, orchards and each year more houses. BYOP.

This genus also contains several other species variously referred to as onions and cultivated for food, such as the Japanese bunching onion (Allium fistulosum), the tree onion (A. ×proliferum), and the Canada onion (Allium canadense). The name "wild onion" is applied to a number of Allium species, but A. cepa is exclusively known from cultivation. Its ancestral wild original form is not known, although escapes from cultivation have become established in some regions.^[2] The onion is most frequently a biennial or a perennial plant, but is usually treated as an annual and harvested in its first growing season.
