Can you grow (green onions) from the onion flower heads (they bolted)?

I just cut the flower heads off and buried them into the ground will they come up next year as green onions again? and Do the flowers have seeds in them?

Wow that is funny my son wanted to plant a green onion today and I was going to ask a similar question. I hope it works out for you.
Reply:Actually, when an onion "bolts," it means it went to seed. However, normally, you have to allow the seed to dry out sufficiently, otherwise it will be damp and then rot in the ground... I used to cut the heads, let them dry, then pulll out the small seed and re-plant....


I don't think you'll have much luck planting the entire head, but who knows?





good luck
Reply:No, those won't grow. The seeds weren't mature. I do this every year, but I leave the pods until they start to crack apart, then re-plant.
Reply:Actually they have to fully mature on the plant and dry out, but yes, once they do, they're ready to go!
