Rather bizzare question.....

Okay, I went out and walked around today and found a big hump in the middle of a bed. As I cussed critters, I lifted some of the hump to figure out which bulb they pushed up. Actually a giant flowering onion came up beneath another giant onion and pierced a hole right through it. The bulb is the size of an orange and I was quite shocked! LOL My question is, will this big bulb still grow with the whole center missing? It only has three tiny roots sticking off of it. It had a few bad spots which I cut off and treated. For now it is sitting on my counter. So, what do you think?

I think it brings tears to my eyes..........

boo hoo tears too yoo

I'd put it back in the ground Michele, and see what happens! Stranger things have happened in nature.

"eyes"

I think a couple of smarty pants jumped on my thread! LOL I have a big stinkin' onion on my counter! If you all saw this thing you would crack up. I had a big onion bulb popsicle growing in my garden! I have never seen such a thing. I know I dug them up last year, took off the babies and replanted them, but this thing really is the size of an orange! An offset came up and pierced it. I guess I can really grow some onions!

Are these edible or decorative? If it is edible put it on a burger. :)

make onion rings

Take a picture of it first,LOL

You Kids are just unrelenting! LOL Would be an expensive sandwich/rings with five buck bulbs. LOL I guess I will replant it and see what happens. :)

Okay, you guys would really rather me eat than plant this: http://plantsdatabase.com/showimage/1161/index.html

Yes, replant please Badseed and let us know what happens :)

that don't look like no onion ring onion,LOL

Globemaster?

Well kids, I am here to report the death of the bizarre bulb. I did everything I could. sniff, sniff, wiping away the tears (it was an onion!). I cut away the bad spots, rinsed it clean and applied fungicide. I set it aside and waited a few days. Despite my heroic efforts, it grew a large fuzzy mold inside, turned all mushy and met with it's demise. I threw it away rather than risk the health of the rest of the family. I guess my question was answered the hard way. waaaahhhh Glad I have a few more. :)

That is awful. These are beautiful and I am sorry you lost that large one.
