No tissue culture. We regrow with natural traditional methods that these plants are adapted to, i e from bulbils, cloves or offsets.
They are mainly garlics and potato onions/shallots (which I know no real good way to tell apart so I regard them as a continuum). Also some Egyptian onions and Allium scorodoprasum. The latter s b translated sandleek, but I have what is said to be sandleek and that one is different. I assume they are both A scorodoprasum though.
Longevity? They must be regrown each year. But some can be allowed to sit in the same place for a couple of years.

Are these splitting of bulbs? Tissue culture?
Since the seeds have longevity issues, this is interesting.
