Chive Seeds

These Chive Seeds will bring a mild onion flavour to your dishes. Perfect for garnishing and flavouring, they are as decorative as they are tasty in your garden!

These chives are great for growing on either a patio or perhaps even a full-sun windowsill.

Growing Instructions

So indoors: Jan-Dec

Sow outdoors: Feb- Jul

Harvest: Jan-Dec

Sow seeds thinly at a depth of 1cm in drills 30cm apart. When large enough to handle, thin out the seedlings within each row to 23cm apart. Alternatively grow the chives indoors or under glass from March to June. Sow in pots or trays on the surface of barely moist seed compost. Cover with a sprinkling of finely sieved compost and place in a propagator at 18-21C until germination which takes 14-21 days. When seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant into 7.5cm pots in bunches of 4 seedlings per pot and grow on in cooler conditions. Gradually acclimatise chive plants to outdoor conditions over 7-10 days before planting outdoors 30cm apart, when all risk of frost has passed.
