I'm looking everywhere for L'ltoi onions. I'm going to check the local gourmet groceries. If I find some I'll send you some. Native seed search doesn't have them listed but I think this fall they might.
From what I understand, there is no need to lift these onions in the summer, just let them die back and they will come up from the roots in the fall, even in the desert of AZ. |

My brother will keep an eye out at the Scottsdale Farmer's market and Whole Foods. I'll check AJ's next weekend.
Actually, come to think about it, I'll have my medical assistant's husband check for me, he works there and owes me one for getting him over a bad asthma/pneumonia attack without health insurance. I'll see if he can hook us up! |

very good ...I hope we can find some... I like the idea of bunching onions and the history of this onion and it being somewhat local for me is pretty cool.
