Garlic Chives Herb Growing Habits

Non-GMO (Allium tuberosum) Garlic Chives grow as upright hardy perennial herbs which thrive during the cooler seasons of spring or fall. Garlic Chive varieties, also called "Chinese Chives" grow from bulbs and reach up to 2 feet tall developing long, flat, and green grass-like shoots. During late spring or once they've grown 6 inches long, your Chives will give off a mild onion and garlic aroma, as they develop their small umbels of white flowers. Cool-season Garlic Chives will be ready for harvest before the edible flowers begin to bow over as the warmer temperatures set in.
