I can't say for the plant since mine is still sprouting but even the seeds give off an onion-y and meaty smell. Quite peculiar haha

Hi! i have never seen this tree unless in video, but based on this page https://jurassicplants.co.uk/collections/all-plants/products/toona-sinensis-onion-tree under "specification" it says it is hardy to -10 Celsius and fast growing. For zone 10 as yours, it should be best to take it outdoors to its permanent position just now, by the end of April. With some fencing to protect from animals, of course. Let us know if any cat bite it because of the meaty smell.

Mine is still small. It is a root sucker from a tree that is in roughly zone 6. I intend to plant it out this coming Fall. My trees suffer from the Summer heat more than a normal Winter. Regards, Dan
