Grow Your Own Delicious Garlic Chives

Enhance your garden with our Garlic Chive plants! This offer includes 20+ live plants, available either in a 4″ pot or as bare root plants, carefully packed with wet paper to maintain root moisture. This specific variety of Chinese Garlic Chive (红根韭菜) is known for its brownish root, which signifies higher nutrient content and anthocyanidin levels, making it more flavorful and richer than the common white root garlic chives. These plants are incredibly easy to grow and thrive with sufficient sunshine, water, and fertilizer. For optimal growth, frequent cutting every 20-30 days is recommended.
