Onion--scallion

Scalliongreen onion, and spring onion are English names (with many other regional names throughout the world) for variousAllium species. All of the Allium have hollow green leaves (like the common onion), but these are used while they lack a fully developed root bulb. Used as a vegetable, they are eaten either raw or cooked. Scallions have a milder taste than most onions.

Use long-day type.

When you buy green onions at store, save and plant the bottom 3/4 inch (bulb) of the onion.  It will regrow.
