I don't know if you have it over there....... but you DON'T want onion
weed.  It is a small bulb that has little white flowers and produces about
16 zillion bulbs (alright, I'm exaggerating....... only 12 zillion) each of
which grows and so on.  Worst thing to get into the garden because it is
just about impossible to get rid of!!
