How deep should I plant allium seeds?

Allium seeds are small and should be planted just below the surface of the soil. Press them lightly into the soil or cover with a thin layer of vermiculite or fine soil.

Are green onions and scallions the same thing?

Yes, green onions and scallions refer to the same vegetable. The terms are used interchangeably in different regions.

What are some companion plants for alliums?

Alliums pair well with a variety of plants in the garden, including perennials such as iris, peonies, and daylilies. They also complement annuals like marigolds, petunias, and zinnias. Consider planting them alongside ornamental grasses for added texture and interest.

How do I prevent my green onions from bolting?

Bolting occurs when green onions prematurely produce a flower stalk. To prevent bolting, avoid planting them during the hottest part of the year and keep the soil consistently moist.
