Does nodding wild onion spread?

The flowers are almost white to shades of purple in color and mature plants can reach up to 18" in height. This plant is easy to grow, and will spread gradually under suitable conditions.
How do you grow pink onions?
Growing nodding pink onions is very easy and the plant naturalizes very well. It can be propagated easily from seed or bulbs can be purchased. It will thrive in well-draining soil with full sun exposure but can tolerate clay soil and difficult areas such as gravely soil.
How do I plant onion sets in my garden?
Planting Onion Sets
Plant onion sets 4 to 5 inches apart in rows 12-18 inches apart and no more than one inch below the soil. Once planted, onions typically develop into full-sized bulbs after 3 to 4 months. As is important throughout your garden, keeping onion rows free from weeds and pests is vital to their success.
Can you plant fall onions?
Although onions can be planted in either the spring or fall, fall planted onions are a great way to enjoy an earlier and larger bulbed harvest from next year's garden. Fall onions grow in much the same fashion as a fall crop of garlic does.
