An easy and pretty small onion for a dryish place - sometimes said to be too easy, but we have never found it to be a problem, and we have grown it for over 20 years. As with all onions, if you don't lie it, eat it! It makes clump of grey-green leaves, topped by the clusters of bright yellow flowers, an unusual colour in this genus.
