Chives are a perennial herbaceous plant with long, slender, hollow leaves that resemble grass blades. The leaves are typically bright green and grow in dense clumps. In the spring and early summer, chives produce small, spherical clusters of lavender to pinkish-purple flowers atop tall, slender stems. Both the leaves and flowers are edible and impart a mild onion flavor to dishes. Chives are known for their compact growth habit, making them well-suited for container gardening, herb gardens, and small spaces. They can be grown both outdoors in the garden and indoors in containers on windowsills or balconies. Chives are easy to grow and require minimal maintenance. They can be propagated from seeds, divisions, or transplants and will readily self-seed under favorable conditions. 

Scientific Name

Allium schoenoprasum

Foliage: Perennial-Evergreen

Leaves: In many climates, they are evergreen. In very cold winters, they will die back and return in early spring. The leaves are hollow, cylindrical, and grow in dense, tidy clumps that look like a tuft of thick, dark-green grass. The leaves have a mild, delicate onion flavor that is much less "sharp" than a standard onion or scallion.

Flowers: In late spring and early summer, they produce beautiful, globe-shaped pale purple or lavender flowers. These blooms are edible and have a light onion flavor.

Seeds: If the flowers are not cut off, they will produce small black seeds. Chives are prolific self-seeders and will gradually spread throughout a garden bed if the flower heads are left to dry.

Mature Height

12 – 18 inches

Mature Width (Spread)

12 – 18 inches (Clumping habit)

Growth Rate

Fast

USDA Zone

3 – 9 (Extremely cold-hardy)


Plant Care & Characteristics

Light Requirements: Full Sun to Partial Shade. While they thrive in 6–8 hours of sun, chives are one of the few culinary herbs that will still produce well in partial shade (4 hours of sun), especially in hot climates like Zone 9.

Water Requirements: Moderate. They prefer consistently moist, well-drained soil. They don't like to be waterlogged, but their thin, straw-like leaves will turn yellow and collapse if the soil dries out completely.

Drought Resistance: Moderate. Once established, the bulbs are quite resilient. In a drought, the foliage may die back to the ground, but the plant will usually resprout once water returns. However, the chives would benefit more from regular watering, especially during dry periods.

Soil Type: Rich & Well-Drained. They love soil high in organic matter (compost). They are fairly adaptable to different pH levels but prefer a neutral range of 6.0–7.0.They can tolerate a variety of soil types, including loamy, sandy, or clay soil, as long as it is well-drained. Incorporating organic matter such as compost into the soil can improve its fertility and drainage. 

Deer Resistance: High. Because of their strong onion/garlic scent and flavor, deer and rabbits almost never touch them. They are often planted as a "barrier" to protect more vulnerable plants.

Harvesting & Use

  • The "Cut and Come Again" Method: You can harvest chives throughout the entire growing season. Simply snip the leaves about 2 inches above the soil line. The plant will regrow new leaves from the base within weeks.Chives benefit from regular harvesting, which encourages new growth and prevents the plant from becoming overly leggy.
  • Culinary Uses: Chives are a versatile herb used in a variety of culinary applications. They can be chopped and added to salads, soups, stews, omelets, dips, and sauces for a mild onion flavor. Chive flowers are also edible and can be used as a garnish or added to salads for color and flavor. Chives are best used fresh, as their flavor diminishes when dried. Note: Always add chives at the very end of cooking (or as a garnish) because heat destroys their delicate flavor.

Bright & Pretty Hot Pink.
Color: Pitaya Red, Color: Pitaya Red
Very pretty and bright. It’s thick and great quality. Strong grip and doesn’t come off easily. Easy to clean when it gets dirty. It also has a nice backing. I prefer the transparent bright pink backing than the clear version. I love the strong magnetic for when I position it upwards. It can be positioned downwards too.

Very protective iPad case

This MoKo iPad case is excellent! It fits perfectly and provides great protection without adding bulk. The navy blue color looks very sleek, and the translucent back shell is a nice touch. It’s super magnetic, with great padding. The smart cover works flawlessly with the auto wake/sleep feature, and the cutouts line up perfectly for Touch ID. Lightweight, durable, and a fantastic value!
