    A few places do grow them,Danny Darong has them up in mampas,Valencia. Bit of a hike up to his place but makes a nice morning out.
    You can also find him at the organic market a couple of days a week near the agricultural place the other side of town.

    We found them today in the City market in Dumaguete. They call them onion leaves here.
