$2.00

Closely related to shallots, leeks, and scallions, this onion variety is used as an herb in most recipes. The pale purple flowers are edible as well, and add a delicious touch of onion to any salad. Plant somewhere spacious where they can overtake. Chives like to reign and are very handy to use fresh. This perennial is hardy and grows well in pots.

      First time I have good germination from chives, so happy, fast grower!

    3. ragersteph –

      Great germination. Growing in DFW TX in a smallish window box container with partial shade in DFW TX. Started seeds in September. Delicious and so pretty.

    4. sys881218 –

      Great germination rate. I did not need to plant more seeds this year because last year’s chives overwintered in my tiny hanging basket!

      Let me tell you these things do not disappoint.
      I startted them last year and had very good germination
      I did not pick or cut but a few of them
      They survived the winter still growing all winter long and bloomed about a month ago (start of june) I now have all those seeds to look forward to continuing to grow and thicken my patch.

      Good germination. I have them in small containers by a
      South facing window. Nice taste.

      Chives are a garden work horse and these do the job, good germination, nearly immortal, and prolific. what more could you ask for

      Received this in early Dec 2020 and immediately started planting for indoor use. I was stunned by the 100% germination rate. I know chives are easy to grow but 100% germination is still pretty shocking. Kudos!

      Who doesn’t need a stand of chives in the garden? These are awesome and I love them.

    12. ourlife767 –

      Fast grower. Great chives!

    13. yorka8384 –

      I ordered these after a failed attempt to plant chives before. I got a great germination rate and they are growing great in my raised bed herb garden.

    14. torizard26 –

      Grew perfectly in zone 7b

    15. liz1rees –

      Yay! They are thriving in year two! Have blossoms coming soon, and are stronger than they were the first year. So excited for my first perennial herb! Just fyi- with them being a biennial, they won’t bloom the first year you plant them.
