This small-bulb type has a shallot-like flavour and       is easy to grow and ideal for hot, dry climates. Bulbs are separated, and       planted in the fall 1 in below        the surface and 12 in apart. Bulbs will multiply into clumps and can be       harvested throughout the cooler months. Tops die back in the heat of summer       and may return with heavy rains; bulbs can remain in the ground or be       harvested and stored in a cool dry        place for planting in the fall. The plants rarely flower; propagation is by       division."       >       > quoted from:       >       > _Allium crop science_ : recent advances, edited by H.D.
