Planting & Care

Sow garlic chive seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost, or direct sow outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface; they need light to germinate. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Germination typically occurs in 14–21 days at 65–70°F.

Once seedlings are a few inches tall, thin or transplant them to 8–12 inches apart. Garlic chives thrive in full sun but tolerate partial shade. Water regularly during dry spells. Divide clumps every few years to maintain vigor. Harvest leaves by cutting them near the base, and remove flower stalks if you prefer to focus on leaf production.
