Last years onion bulbs left over to winter
 

Didn't work out. They all (that I have pulled) have rotted bulbs :(

Leave the rest in or pull them and replace?

what didn't work out? a bit more
description would help.

if there is any green growth or any live
roots on them then they may flower this year
or you can eat them as a green onion after
they grow a bit. the smaller plants may bulb
out.

They finally did bulb out, made for tasty green onions, which was their
intended destiny.

Thx,
