Allium tuberosum (Garlic Chives)

Description

Almost everything I grow is either native or an heirloom plant. Garlic chives are one of very few exceptions to that rule. This non-native carefree perennial culinary herb thrives in sunny gardens that are rich in organic matter. The more you cut the leaves, the more leaves they will grow. I have had them for a very long time. I don’t recall where I acquired my first ones. They are pollinated by our native Onion Bees.
