We have had these chives since we moved into the house. We purchased them at Colemans and our idea was to have chives to dry and eat, although we have done very little of that. On the other hand the poor plant was covered for a long time in vines and then grass until last year when I moved them and dug the grass out of them. I really didn't think they would make it and really didn't care because they are cheap to purchase. But they survived and this year they bloomed. We still look to cut some and eat them, but mostly they will go in our waterfall garden someday and look beautiful as they bloom in June.
