Chives in Bloom ~ add some to your garden!

Chives are a mild flavored tasty little cousin to onions. We add them to many dishes that need a bit of flavor but not the sometimes overwhelming flavor of onion. Not only do they reseed themselves around my garden, I split the plants up and have them in pots that can be brought in for winter use. If you want a constant supply for the summer don't cut all of the clump at once, leave some uncut for the next use. It takes a couple of weeks for them to recover enough for another cutting.
