Chives, Garlic 
Allium tuberosum
This herb is beloved not only for its versatile culinary uses but for its elegance in the garden. Tall, starry white flowers spring out of a mound of smooth gray-green grassy leaves. You can go out to the garden in midsummer and gather swaths of it for practically any dish. Its flavor is a lovely, mild combination of what everyone loves best: onions and garlic. Interesting Notes Use the flowers in fresh arrangements. You can also dry the leaves, or freeze them for later use.
Sowing Information You can sow seed directly into fine garden soil or start indoors early, then transplant in spring when all danger of frost has passed. Spread seed on warm soil and cover with 1/4 inch fine soil. Seeds will germinate in 7-14 days. Once plants are two to three inches tall, thin to space plants 8-10 inches apart. 90 days to maturity.Our 2010 shipping season has ended for our plants. All plant orders placed now will ship in April 2011. We do, however, ship seeds year round.
