Description
Garlic chives grow flat green leaves with a gentle garlic-onion flavor and bright white starry flower clusters later in the season. This hardy perennial is a useful bridge between herb and ornamental, giving cooks fresh leaves while offering pollinators a late-summer bloom.
Snip the leaves into dumplings, eggs, noodles, stir-fries, soups, and savory pancakes, or use the edible flowers as a garnish. Plants form clumps and can reseed, so harvest generously and deadhead if you want to keep them neatly in place.
