Parade bunching onion, also known as a scallion, is a vigorous and reliable variety prized for its superb upright posture and growth habit, which makes harvesting and cleaning especially easy. Plants produce beautiful deep green leaves and an extra-long white shank, creating attractive, uniform bunches that are ideal for the kitchen and market harvests alike.

This variety offers a mild yet satisfying onion flavor with a firm, crisp texture. The white stalks deliver a fuller onion taste and hold their structure well during cooking, making them excellent for sautéing, grilling, soups, and stir-fries. The tender green tops are delicate and chive-like, perfect for fresh garnishes, salads, and finishing dishes just before serving.

Parade bunching onions grow quickly and perform well in full sun and fertile, well-drained soil, making them a dependable crop for both spring and fall gardens. Harvest when stalks reach about 10–12 inches tall, pulling the entire plant gently from the soil or cutting just above the root line for fresh use.

This productive variety is wonderful fresh in salads, added to soups and stir-fries, grilled whole, or used as a flavorful garnish, bringing both color and bright onion flavor to the kitchen.
