Description: I'm selling over 300 + kinds of seeds ( and also live plants during the warmer months ) so check my other auctions . You are bidding on about 50 seeds from GARLIC CHIVES - Allium tuberosum . Garlic Chives do make a very small bulb that can be used like a small green onion. Harvest bulbs before the flower opens, while it is just a bud. Be sure to leave some bulbs in the ground so they will continue to make more. Harvest blades by cutting all the way to the ground. This allows new foliage to be free of grassy half blades that have been left behind. Their flowers, which are also edible, bloom in the warmth of summer, which is in contrast to the early spring flowers of regular Chives. Let a few flower heads go to seed and ripen. The shiny black seeds are a peppery delicacy when sprouted: the perfect winter treat. Cultural Information Height: 1 Foot Hardiness: Perennial in Zones 3-11 Flower Color: White Characteristics: Full Sun, Edible parts of Garlic Chives: Leaves - raw or cooked. A mild flavour, somewhat like a cross between garlic and chives, they are delicious in salads. Medicinal use of Garlic Chives: The whole plant is antibacterial, cardiac, depurative, digestive, stimulant, stomachic and tonic. It is an anti-emetic herb that improves kidney function. It is used internally to treat urinary incontinence, kidney and bladder weaknesses etc. See my store for 400+ seeds , live plants ( during the warmer months ) and over 300+ books on plants and gardening .
