Garlic Chive Live Plants (Allium tuberosum) – Edible Perennial Herb, Zones 3–9
Scientific name: Allium tuberosum
The Chive with a Delicate Garlic Twist
Garlic Chives (Allium tuberosum) offer the best of both worlds — the mild onion flavor of regular chives with a subtle garlic note that elevates any dish. Use the flat, grass-like leaves fresh or cooked in stir-fries, dumplings, egg dishes, soups, and anywhere you'd use chives or garlic. The flowers are also edible and make a beautiful garnish.
In the garden, Garlic Chives are a low-maintenance perennial that returns reliably year after year. In late summer, they produce clusters of pretty white flowers that attract bees and other pollinators. Wildlife tend not to browse. Plants thrive in a wide range of conditions.
