Description
Add the fabulous flavor of onions��without the tears! Onion chives give soup, eggs, potatoes, and all your favorite dishes the perfect hint of onion flavor. Easy to grow, the plants form neat clumps of grass-like, tubular foliage that look lovely as a border in a garden bed or even along a walkway. Onion chives grow beautifully in containers, too, and the pretty purple blooms in spring make it a great edible and ornamental plant. (Add the edible flowers to salads or use as a garnish.) Plant in full sun in fertile, well-drained soil. Perennial (zones 3 to 10).
