Onions are part of the lily family, Amaryllidaceae, and belong to the genus Allium. Alliums have bulbous, onion-scented roots. Garlic, chives, shallots, and leeks also belong to this genus as do the ornamental alliums grown for their purple flowers. The common garden onions are termed Allium cepa by botanists.
