onion help needed!

I planted onion sets in the winter. They now seem to be forming flower heads even though the onions are still very small. What should I do? Am I meant to cut off the flower head to stop all energies going into that? Yes - you've got it. The by garden potterer

Annuals, Perenials and Bi-annuals

bulbs of which i will plant in september for spring colour. I fancy Orange - any ideas guys? Violas and pansies are good in pots over winter - if it's mild, they'll flower right through. Orange spring bulbs - that's harder. But you can get orange by Cia

Talkback: How to harvest garlic

for harvesting? I believe you wait until the plant has flowered and the leaves have withered, then it is right to harvest. Haven't done it myself yet though as this is my first year growing garlic! I love both wild and bulb garlic...but this has inspired me by Denzle43

Autumn

Does anyone know/grow an unusual autumn plant named Sternbergia ? I dont grow them, but they make a lovely bit of autumn colour. They are widely available in the net. Need a good summer or you'll just get winter leaves. Nice if they do perform by arbutus1

Talkback: Planting spring bulbs

bulb with a maximum height of 40 cm ? I live in Belgium so it can be a lite bit colder here than in the UK. Bees sleep in crocus flowers? That is so cool! I'm planting loads of tulips this year. I'm planting the bulbs in pots with daffs planted on top by hayinwood
