Well I'll be sowing some more over-wintering onion seed in the next few days ... I've got some "walking" onions (just) germinating, some Welsh onions waiting to germinate and some Japanese "Sonic" onion seed just arrived ... I like onions  ;)

Japanese salads and things like Pak Choi, there's probably some sort of cabbage family member that needs to go in, but overwintering onions are the "headline" I guess....
