Exactly right:
Onion blooms!
Some time ago
I planted a few spring onions in a pot.
As it often happens with what I plant,
they grew
and as they were ready to cut
I took pity on them
…they looked so nice!
For what ever reason
I let them be!
So yesterday,
as I was taking care of my plants,
I saw this!
So I am proud to present,
my green onion bloom!
So tall,
it just about fit in my camera frame!
Isn’t it beautiful?

Nice… I have a sickly plant out back that survived inside all winter. Just two hours of overnight zero degrees temp nearly killed it. It’s struggling but I think it will come back.
Have faith and …talk to it!
Well yeah, I watered it a lot last night… and I talk to it too. Looking better today.
…and better tomorrow… ๐
LOVE this post!
Your onion flower is stunning. I adore Onion Flowers!
Both songs are awesome. So much fun to listen to!
Thank you, Marina!

Love this, Marina! Beautiful
My onions could never grow too big – I have a son who is a MANIAC… He would eat all my chives and chive flowers. We’d go up to my mothers and he’d pull out a green onion, wipe if off and chomp on it – he’s been doing this since he’s I dunno three?
Great tunes, too!
๐คฃ๐๐คฃ๐๐คฃ๐… I guess we can safely say he… likes onions huh?! ๐คฃ๐๐คฃ๐๐คฃ My goodness… three?!!!! Well I’d never seen one before (I mean that flower) so I thought I’d spare its life! ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
Laugh away. That kid had had stinky onion breath since! ๐ฐ๐ฐ
Very pretty…๐๐๐
A ha ha ha haaaaaaaaaa…. I’ll bet! …at least if it was garlic he’d keep vampires away!
Loves garlic, too ๐
Beautiful, though I might be reluctant to offer a bouquet of them to a damsel on a first date. Unless, of course, she is an onion addict as I am…

Ah ha ha… if, as you say, she’s an onion addict, then you’ve won her heart for a lifetime! ๐คฃ๐
wow, yeah, how tall is that!?
70cm! which is weird for a spring onion [or so I think]!!!!! ๐
๐ฒ
…and I only have about 50cm max distance to capture it [after that it’s free flight! ;-)]
As well the leek flowers (very similar to chives) are wonderful. Each year I let 3 or 5 leeks grow until they blossom and I cut them to put inside the house!
Hugs :-)c
I really didn’t know! If another one grows I will do that too but for now I’ll leave this be! xoxoxoxo Many many hugs and love! xoxoxo
Your onion bloom went boom!
Oh… so did I from reading this! Thank you, my friend! ๐

Wonderful shots.
Thank you very much and thank you for the visit! ๐
Wonderful photos, poem, and onion songs. That’s an excellent video of the Beatles’ Glass Onion.
Thank you, my friend. So glad you enjoyed the onion company! ๐๐
Reblogged this on By the Mighty Mumford.
Thank you for rebloging my onions, Jonathan!!!! ๐๐๐
Didn’t see onion flowers before!
Believe me, neither had I!
Do you, Marina, remember Captain Kangaroo—the children’s TV program? A play on one oF the show’s regular sing-a-longs: “I’m a lonely onion flower in a petunia patch!” ;D
Oh, you got me! I didn’t know this show! Just checked it! ๐๐๐คฃ
“I’M A LONELY LITTLE PETUNIA IN AN ONION PATCH. AN ONION PATCH, AN ONION PATCH—i’M A LONELY LITTLE PETUNIA IN AN ONION PATCH—OH WON’T YOU COME TO PLAY WITH ME! BOOHOO, BOOHOO OH WON’T YOU COME AND PLAY WITH ME?” (WITH A PICTURE OF A PETUNIA “WEEPING” TEARS—WATER SQUIRTING OUT!) ๐
Poor Petunia!!!!!! ๐๐คฃ๐๐คฃ๐๐คฃ
Very nice ๐ I love onions ๐ง they add zing to just about everything. Yum ๐
Oh, they do!!!!!! ๐๐คฃ Thank you, my friend! ๐
