Ishikura onion is a popular, fast-growing Japanese bunching onion (Allium fistulosum) known for its long, thick white stalks and mild flavor, typically reaching up to 2 feet in height without forming bulbs. It is highly versatile, ideal for stir-fries, soups, and salads, and can be harvested at various stages from pencil-thin to thick, carrot-sized stalks.

ONIONS

When planting onions in your garden, make sure you situate them in full sun. Onions are shallow rooted and grow best with steady watering, especially during the bulbing phase. Adequate air circulation helps reduce the risk of foliage disease. Keep an eye out for onion maggot, whose hatched larvae crawl into the bulb and feed on the roots, stem, and developing bulb which will destroy your crop. With their unique flavors--some strong and overpowering, some mild and sweet--onions can be added to nearly any dish and can be cooked every way, as well as eaten raw.
