This looks very much like Egyption walking onions (has little sets on top of stem & they fall to ground & regrow). My grandmother grew them. A good eating onion if pulled before it gets too large or gets new sets on it.

Definitely walking onion [HYPERLINK@davesgarden.com]

I have a yard full of them and I'm always giving away bulbs.
