I'm going to add some perennial type vegetables to my garden and I know about things like rhubarb and horseradish but I'm seeking out some other things too. Any advice would be appreciated.
I've heard of walking onions but I have never seen any growing. Who would be a good supplier to get these hardy plants into my garden?

I have read up on walking onions also known as Egyptian Onions but haven't gotten around to growing them.
I ordered Nodding Onion-Allium to plant in the spring from Botanical Interests. www.botanicalinterests.com
It's a perennial flower to be planted in full sun to part shade. Leaves & flowers are edible with a onion flavor. I'm looking forward to growing and using it.
