|text=CIBOUL. TWO-BLADED ONION. WELSH ONION. Siberia, introduced into England in 1629<ref>Booth, W. B. ''Treas. Bot.'' 1:40. 1870.</ref>. The Welsh onion acquired its name from the German walsch (foreign)<ref>Pickering, C. ''Chron. Hist. Pls.'' 582. 1879.</ref>. It never forms a bulb like the common onion but has long, tapering roots and strong fibers<ref>Booth, W. B. ''Treas. Bot.'' 1:40. 1870.</ref>. It is grown for its leaves which are used in salads. McIntosh<ref>McIntosh, C. ''Book Gard.'' 2:41. 1855.</ref> says it has a small, flat, brownish-green bulb which ripens early and keeps well and is useful for pickling. It is very hardy and, as Targioni-Tozzetti<ref>Targioni-Tozzetti ''Journ. Hort. Soc. Lond.'' 9:147. 1855.</ref> thinks, is probably the parent species of the onion. It is mentioned by McMahon<ref>McMahon, B. ''Amer. Gard. Col.'' 582. 1806.</ref> in 1806 as one of the American garden esculents; by Randolph in Virginia before 1818; and was cataloged for sale by Thorburn in 1828, as at the present time.
