Scallion Plants


 

It's fun to sketch the progress of scallion starts from the kitchen as they grow into plants I can use again and again!  I found the little green mason jar starter for green onions with sprouting lids in a kit, and I HAD to try it!  It's as easy as saving the bottom inch of a green onion to slip into a well with water, and watch the magic happen!  I use a lot of these in cooking, and even grow one in my hydroponic garden.  But these, I should be able to transplant outdoors when it is warm enough, for a bountiful harvest that could even be perennial in my zone.  We'll see!  Maybe, I'll never have to buy them again, and can paint them when they all break out in glorious bloom!  Painting number 4786 in 4786 days.
