Description
[80 days] Perfect as an ornamental or as a culinary herb, no garden is complete without chives. The greens are mildly oniony necessary for many a savory dish and the flowers create a perfect garnish for just about any dish (and are especially tasty in salads!). The plants themselves are perennials and will reward you with years and years of tasty leaves and flowers.
Cold hardy, disease resistant, heat tolerant and grow well in containers.
