A previous article about potato onions provided detailed information describing this unusual root crop, along with tips for growing them in the backyard garden. Today I wanted to share a couple of photos from this summer’s harvest of these unique onions.
What’s a Potato Onion you ask? Well it’s definitely not a potato, not even distantly related to those starchy tubers. No, it’s not some weird genetic cross between a potato and an onion. Potato onions are actually a type of onion that has more in common with a shallot than either a potato or an onion, so don’t ask me how it got its name.
