FREE: Chives, 30 qty seeds

The listing, Chives, 30 qty seeds has ended.

Chives are great for cooking but did you know if you let them go to flower they are totally beautiful? Well, they are and that is why I don’t relegate them solely to the herb garden. I have them here, there and everywhere. They tend to annoy deer (they don’t like the smell) who come looking to eat my hosta, so they move on. YAY!

They do well in my swampy gardens in either full sun and part shade, hardy to USDA zones 3-9, prefers rich well drained soil but like I said does great in wet, clay as well, as dry sandy soil. It self-sows so if you leave the flowers to ripen into seeds you'll have tons more plants the next spring. Clip the leaves all season long and they will regrow more leaves for the kitchen, cooking and fresh eating.

Planting instructions:
In my garden these seeds grow all by themselves. The seeds fall from the plant and grow where they fall without me doing anything. So, duplicate that and you’ll be fine. Just water and sun is needed after that. Depending on when you plant them, it may take several days or even weeks for germination, so be patient.
