This is what it looked like when I first picked it up. Not bad for 2 months in a pot. I wonder if it helped it multiply.

6 foot T posts driven 2 feet down. The panels are 5 gauge I believe, very sturdy I weigh 230 pounds and I can hang off them.

I used hi-fi panels, they are 8'x5' with 4"x4" squares, similar to cattle panel I believe. I am growing sugar peas, snow peas, shelling peas, runner beans, noodle beans, green beans. Armenian, lemon, European, Asian cucumbers. Zuccheta, snake melon, and edible gourds. A few more varieties I would have to check my seed book. All heirlooms that grow 6+ feet. I plan on growing peas here year round with the heat loving stuff shading them. I will post updates. the newest pictures are about 2 months from the start.

I just moved to a 1/3 acre in the East Bay, CA and I plan on doing a forest garden with some beds (I will do a big post on that later). For now I just want to show my tunnel and trellis. Tunnel is 15' x 5' and trellis is 10' x 7.5. Let me know if anyone has any thoughts or ideas.

They are different than multiplier onions and elephant garlic. It is a bit hard to find info on them and if there are different varieties.

I like perennial alliums, I have I'itoi onions, walking/egyptian onions, welsh onions, chives, elephant garlic, shallots. I want to pick up potato onions.

They will make good sized leeks if given room. You can plant starts and let them mature, then pull up the large ones and take off the small ones and replant. they taste great and are easy to propagate.

I got them from Planting Justice in Oakland, CA.

This is my first post. I divided my perennial multiplier leeks. I am really liking this plant. I got it 2 months ago and it was 5 small plants, now it is 28 plants!
