About This

• Allium tuberosum, or Garlic Chives, has a subtle garlic flavor and is perfect for cooking. This perennial has flowers during the summer months that are edible. Their nectar attracts bees and some gardeners even cut the flowers for arrangements, and they dry well too.
• Microgreens can easily be grown indoors on your kitchen counter in a growing tray or other container using soil or a soil substitute. Microgreens are packed with nutrients and can be added to various food dishes or eaten raw. Micro garlic chives are slow to germinate and sprout but are well worth the time and effort, as the flavor is different from most microgreens.
• Garlic Chives have bulbs that can be used like a small green onion. Harvest the leaves by hand as soon as they reach about 6 inches. The bulbs are ready for harvest once flowers have budded. Garlic chives are a 12 inch tall perennial herb growing in USDSA zones 4 - 9.
• Chives prefer full sun to partial shade and rich, well-drained soil. Measure rows of seed 18 inches apart and thin seedlings to 6 – 8 inches when they are 2 inches tall.
• Sowing Rate: 1 - 2 seeds per inch. Start Chives directly outdoors after danger of frost has passed. Press the seed into the soil, cover with 1/8 inch of soil and keep it moist. With a temperature of 70F, germination is usually in 21 days.
