Last year I planted this little clump of chives in my strawberry pot along with some succulent flowers that did quite well but did not overwinter. Honestly I forgot it was there. it was always just a little clump of green. There are lots of little clumps of green in my yard at all times. I bought it with plans to use as a garnish . Never happened. Who actually uses chives ?
Lo and behold it went and flowered. I'm impressed . More strawberry pot holes will be filled with chives this year. It seems hardy enough to withstand my container planting curse. I guess I need to learn cooking with chives as according to the chive experts it grows better if you clip it. Another interesting use was this recipe for Chive blossom vinegar. Now where do I find 2 cups of chive blossoms ?
