Onions are endlessly versatile and an essential ingredient in countless recipes. But who new onions were so good for you? Onions detoxify your body; they are great for your heart and help prevent cancer. Plus they can cure an angry itch too. Growing onions can be easy, as long as you plant them at the right time of year. My SIMPLY GROWING guest, gardening book author and master gardener, Pat Welsh, has lived in many climate zones and understands how to grow the best onion. Her passion and knowledge on this humble brown, white or red, paper-thin skinned bulb, will turn your thumbs green, I promise.
