These live bare root plants arrive ready to establish, making them a practical choice for herb gardens, edible landscapes, and kitchen beds. The plants form clumping, grass-like foliage that adds texture to borders and containers while providing a steady supply of fresh herb for cooking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGarlic chives are valued for their versatility and easy-going nature. The leaves can be snipped fresh for stir-fries, soups, dumplings, and egg dishes, and the plants return year after year in suitable climates.

Rehydrate the roots briefly in water, then set them in a prepared bed or container with well-drained soil, covering the roots and firming the soil gently around them. Water thoroughly after planting and keep the soil consistently moist until new growth appears.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnce established, garlic chives need moderate watering and benefit from a light application of compost or balanced fertilizer in spring. Remove spent flowers if self-seeding is unwanted, and divide crowded clumps every few years to maintain vigor. Harvest leaves by snipping near the base, leaving enough growth for the plant to recover.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e50 live garlic chive leek plants shipped as bare root plants.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67776275087670,"sku":"FOLIA-506","price":83.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.6632500509_62xl.jpg?v=1792468600","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/50-live-garlic-chive-leek-plants-bare-root-edible-perennial-herb","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
