Chives - in the Potager Garden

Pomona, California

Chives are cultivated both for culinary uses and ornamental value.

My late wife started a potager garden just outside our back door so that it is easy to step out from the kitchen and snip something for the pot.

"...something for the pot."?

Just make sure she doesn't smoke too much out there Cliff!

Very nice! My chive flowers are much more lavendar hued while yours seem to have a stripe effect.
