Tree onion

The tree onion is a perennial plant similar to the common onion (A. cepa), but with a cluster of bulblets where a normal onion would have flowers. Tree onions are also known as Spring onions, Green onions, topsetting onions, walking onions, or Egyptian onions. Genomic evidence has suggested that they may be a diploid hybrid of the shallot and the Welsh onion (A. fistulosum). Other sources treat the tree onion as A. cepa var. proliferum or A. cepa Proliferum Group.

Culinary use
Japan The plant is known as in Japan. Considered a specialty of the Hiroshima Prefecture, it is used in local cooking similar to other scallions. Korea In Korea, Allium × proliferum along with A. fistulosum is called pa (, "scallion"), while common onions are called yangpa (, "Western scallion"). While A. × proliferum is called jjokpa (, "separated scallion"), A. fistulosum is called either daepa (, "big scallion") or silpa (, "thread scallion") depending on the size. Unlike daepa and silpa, which are usually used as a spice, herb, or garnish, jjokpa is often used as the main ingredient of various scallion dishes in Korean cuisine. Common dishes made with jjokpa include pajeon (scallion pancakes) and pa-kimchi (scallion kimchi).
