The Perpetual Scallion?

Or Things I Learned on Pinterest...

I know they are not everyone's cup of

tea, but I love scallions.  Recently, the

price of scallions in my area has shot

through the roof.  So, when I came across

this post on Pinterest, I had to give it a

try.  The post said, if you have a bunch of

wilted scallions, don't throw them away,

cut off the greens and place the cut ends

in a glass of water and place in a sunny

window and you will have perpetual scallions!

Really?

Ten days ago, I took a bunch of

organic scallions and gave it a try.

If you look closely at the photo above

you can see where I cut the bunch.

A healthy root system has formed.

I take them out of the glass and wash

the roots and add fresh water to the

glass occasionally.

And here we are 10 days later.

Thanks Pinterest!
