Growing Spring onions, also Scallions, Bunching onions

21 Aug 09 Susan (Australia - temperate climate)
Spring onions and shallots are two different things. Shallots (also known as French shallots) are like smallish onions (just a bulb) whereas spring onions don't have a big bulb and include the long green shoots (leaves). I think spring onions are called green onions in the US.
