Onions, Shallots and Garlic bulbs

Red and white onions, banana shallots and garlic planted last week on a very wet day. When planting onions and garlic I settle them into the ground with tips exposed. Then cover them with netting that I use year on year for many purposes. This stops the birds pulling them up and allows them time to root!

Not the best of images but it’s was a wet February day and they are now covered in snow!

Some people plant onion sets in the late autumn, but I’m always too busy for some reason (The Christmas Shop is in full swing)!
