I sent a request about the Walking onion question we touched on a couple of 
days ago to the company I originally purchased them from. Now we know the 
facts. This is the response I received:

Dear Gurney Gardener:

Egyptian walking onions are indeed different from garlic chives.  The
onions are in the aggregatum group of the Allium cepa species.  The Chives
are in the Allium tuberosum species.

Sincerely,

Gail
