The weight of the bulb and how it grows gives this vegetable its name. This variety of onion can easily spread in a garden and can be planted anytime of the year. They will grow in the sun and in the shade.
2. Globe Artichokes
Staring these plants from seeds is a great way to get them established in your garden. They grow in the spring and in the fall. Make sure they are in partial shade or they will suffer in too much heat. This is a great option when deciding which perennial vegetables to plant this year.
