What's Blooming Now - Wild Texas Onion 08/21/10


Wild Onion makes very pretty flowers in the late summer. Each individual flowerette turns into a black seed that can be planted in another place or just allowed to drop to the ground and sprout. And, of course wild onion is edible. You can dig up a handful and eat them. They are similar to the green onions you buy in the grocery store.
