     there are a lot of terms in casual gardening and   
   vegetable gardening that are not precisely defined.   
      
     a green onion, a spring onion, scallions, chives   
   can be a number of different things.  add in the   
   talk about potato onions, walking onions, egyptian   
   onions, bunches and such, then there are things like   
   ramps and odd or large garlics which some may   
   consider onions or not.  and then we have the tulip   
   off to the side minding it's own business and garlic   
   chives.  :)   
      
     it's fun to read up on and to have a few of this   
   and that to see what they grow like.   
      
     i'm trying to be patient with these bunching onions   
   here but it's hard to not want to go out and dig some   
   up and eat them in a stir fry (rite neow!)...
