Kira,

Another poster already covered the fact that you may have planted the onion
bulbs too late, and the heat got them.

However, were the bulbs nice & heavy? If not, they may have been stored
improperly, and there simply was not enough of the bulb left to sustain
growth.

Last year for the first time, I tried planting a bag of red onion
bulbs. They were planted among the rows of peppers and eggplants,
which did well. So all these plants were mounded slightly higher than
the walking rows in between. All the onions put up a few green
leaves and then died back. In the fall, digging in there, there was
nary a single sign of any onion ever being there. Advice for this
year?
