Onion Bulbils, Red Catawissa Walking (10 bulbils)
Growing Tips
Red Catawissa Walking onions prefer rich, well-drained soil with a pH between 6.0 and 7.0. Perennial in zones 3-9, this onion can be grown reliably in almost all U.S zones. They thrive in full sun and need regular watering, especially during dry spells. Amend the soil with compost to improve fertility. These onions can tolerate a range of temperatures but perform best in cooler climates.
When to Grow
The best time to plant Red Catawissa Walking onion is in the fall, typically between September and October. Fall planting allows the bulbs to establish roots before winter, resulting in earlier growth in spring. They are hardy and can overwinter in the ground. Can also be planted in early spring.
How to Sow and Plant
Preparation: Loosen the soil to a depth of 6-8 inches and mix in compost.
Planting: Plant bulbils about 1-2 inches deep with the pointy end up. Space the bulbils around 6 inches apart in rows 12 inches apart.
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during dry periods. Mulch around the plants to retain moisture and reduce the need for frequent watering.
How to Grow
Fertilizing: Use a balanced fertilizer or compost tea during the growing season.
Weeding: Keep the area weed-free to ensure the onions get sufficient nutrients and moisture.
Harvesting: The bulbils will produce small clusters of new bulbils on top of the stems. Harvest these as needed and replant for continuous growth.
FAQ
How long does it take to grow Red Catawissa Walking onions?
Bulbils typically mature in 3-4 months.
Can Red Catawissa Walking onions be grown in containers?
Yes, provided the container is deep enough for root growth.
What is a walking onion?
The weight of the top bulbils will eventually cause the plant to flop over in fall and take root in a new place just a few feet away, hence "walking” across the garden.
How do I know when to harvest Red Catawissa Walking onions?
Harvest in mid to late summer, when the bulbils have produced small clusters of new bulbils on top of the stems.
