Default Welsh onions, everlasting onions

Hi

I am after seeds of the "Welsh onion" or "Everlasting onion". It is a bunching onion that stays in the ground all year and tough as old boots. My Nan always had some and it was so useful.
I will pay for the postage. I have a selection of seeds and can see if there is anything anyone is after.

Many thanks

Shushkin

I haven't got any seed, but have a small plant, will try and divide it if you have no offers. Let me know.

I've got some welsh onion seeds, I think I've got green and red types - I'll have a root around and see.

You can have them anyway, but what have you got - veg wise - for a swap?
