Chives Seeds (Common)

Chives are perennial herbs that can be planted indoors or outdoors. A very versatile and tasty herb! Not only do chives add flavor to baked potatoes, but they can also be used to flavor soups and other foods as well.

Bright green, slender, hollow leaves with a mild onion flavor; pinkish-purple pom-pom flowers appear in late spring to early summer. If there were an award for "easiest herb to grow", chives would win, hands down. Once you plant chives in your garden, chances are you'll always have them. They can be easily dug up and divided if the clump gets too large. In mild climates, plants are nearly evergreen.
