Allium canadense aka Canada Onion

With its straightforward care requirements, Canada Onion is a hassle-free plant that anyone can enjoy.

Canada Onion’s native range is the Northern Hemisphere, South America, and Africa.

Canada Onion should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

Canada Onion loves a well-draining soil. Perlite and vermiculite help with drainage, while coco coir adds organic matter, so a good potting soil mix will have all three. You can improve store-bought soil by adding some perlite to it.

To ensure optimal growth, the Canada Onion prefers bright indirect light for 6-8 hours each day. Insufficient light can result in slow growth and leaf drop, so it's important to find a well-lit location for this plant. Place it near a window, within a distance of 1 meter (3 feet), to enhance its potential for thriving.

The Canada Onion does not necessitate supplementary humidity. Plants primarily absorb water through their roots, rather than their leaves. Hence, the most effective way to supply humidity to your plants is by watering the soil.

The Canada Onion should be transferred to a new pot once it has increased in size two-fold, or on an annual basis, whichever occurs earlier. Replacing the soil with fresh potting soil containing all the necessary nutrients, is sufficient enough to support the growth of the plant, thus avoiding the need to use fertilizer. It's important to note that plants derive their energy from the sun and not fertilizer.

Canada Onion is poisonous if ingested. We suggest keeping this plant out of reach if you have children, cats, or dogs in the home.
