God I love growing our own

spring onions have never been a thing here in Wales shallots are either harvested young for salads or left to mature for the bulbs (but that's not such a big thing) it ws the green leaves that were the essential salad ingredients and in later years my grandfather would just treat much of his shallots as a 'cut and come again' crop which later on would still develop good bulbs for pickling.
There were also plenty of chives in the garden margins.

Who are the suppliers and what variety? I struggle to get spring onions to germinate.
