Fine chives are a perennial herb with thin, hollow, grass-like leaves that have a mild onion flavor. They grow in clumps, reaching about 12 inches tall, and produce delicate purple flowers in spring, which attract pollinators. Ideal for culinary use, they enhance salads, soups, and garnishes. Chives thrive in full sun and well-drained soil, making them perfect for garden beds or containers.
Unpack immediately and water if dry. Let them rest in indirect light for a day before transplanting. Plant in rich, well-drained soil, spacing 6-8 inches apart. Water consistently but avoid waterlogging. Regular trimming encourages fresh growth. Chives are hardy, low-maintenance, and return yearly with proper care.
