As usual, great discussion at crit group.
The drawings are mnemonic devices.
The walking onion is a kind of green onion that my friend H originally got in New Hampshire, and she said it grows well here, needs no protection in winter, reseeds itself in a new location by bending over and dropping its seeds from its flower; hence the name. I went home and planted them in the partially frozen square foot garden and also just outside the garden. Fun to be planting in January! Look for more information about these onions on their website here.
I think we had a similar sort of onion years ago...I'd forgotten about it til I saw your post, Thanks for the reminder.
