Grow one of the easiest and most versatile culinary herbs with Chives, a greenhouse-grown starter live plant prized for its mild onion flavor, slender green leaves, and attractive lavender-purple blooms. Allium schoenoprasum, commonly known as Chives, is a hardy perennial herb that is a must-have for herb gardens, raised beds, patio containers, and kitchen gardens. Fresh leaves are perfect for potatoes, eggs, soups, salads, seafood, dips, herb butter, and countless savory recipes. Its nectar-rich flowers also attract bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators. With proper care, it may produce blooms under suitable growing conditions.

Chives thrive in full sun to partial shade and prefer fertile, consistently moist, well-draining soil. Harvest the hollow green leaves regularly to encourage fresh growth throughout the growing season. In late spring to early summer, attractive globe-shaped lavender-purple flowers rise above the foliage, adding ornamental beauty while supporting pollinators. This cold-hardy perennial returns year after year with minimal care.
