Welsh Onion

Welsh Onion | Allium fistulosum. Initially they look exactly like chives but as they mature they form a dense mass of leaves more like spring onions. If left alone they will produce large chunky white flowers which are also edible.  We prefer to cook the young leaves instead of eating them raw as they have a strong flavour. Use as you would and onion. 

Medicinally they are used for the treatment of colds, flu, headaches and abdominal pain.
