Chinese chives
Allium tuberosum
Chinese chives are easy-care perennial herbs that grow well in containers or garden beds with moderate watering and partial to full sun. Harvest leaves regularly by cutting them a few inches above the base to encourage vigorous regrowth. They are cold-hardy, self-seeding, and produce attractive white flowers that pollinators love.
