I don't know if the seed grows true, but if there are no other onions around to cross with, wouldn't that mean it self pollinated? I am growing a walking onion that had mostly"seeds"- they don't look like actual seeds, but just tiny, under developed bulbils(is that what you mean by seed?). The only other allium I have growing is chives...they can't cross, can they? That would be strange...

Mine broke off like yours, where I removed the bulbils- and so I just planted all of them. So far, several of them have sprouted.

Could they be crossed with anything that might be growing wild somewhere? My neighbors have pretty overgrown yards sometimes, but I haven't noticed any gardens.
