Heirloom onions photos

[Barbee]

Having never grown heirloom onions, I'm new to this adventure. I've always planted onion sets and these onions were given to me by an older gentleman with no instructions other than plant them in the fall and let a few of them stay in the ground till fall again. So this morning, I noticed that a several of the onions were doubling up in the row..and I picked the crowder uppers. I guess I'll know after lunch if I should have thinned them or left them go LoL
They sure do smell good!
