In areas that do not typically get frost, sow seeds in the fall. Culinary Uses The Evergreen White Nebuka is a popular Japanese variety of bunching onions. Used fresh or cooked in a variety of grilled dishes or Asian stir fry. Harvesting Crops These onions can be harvested at any time. We recommend selective harvesting to keep a continuous crop. Harvesting Seed Like Chives, bunching onions will produce a flower if allowed to fully mature. This flower contains the seeds. Allow the flower to dry out on the stalk, cut the stalk a few inches down and hang upside down in a paper sack to dry thoroughly for a few weeks in a cool dry place. Shake the bag to release the seeds. Separate the seeds from the chaff and safely store until next growing season.
