CHIVES
This is a useful herb for soups, salads and flavouring. It is more delicate in flavour than the onion, the top of the plant being the part used. The plants are cut off close to the ground when required and new growth is soon in evidence. When undisturbed, the plants make neat and compact tufts. To increase, divide in spring and autumn. Single bulbs may be used, but small clusters are preferable. They need not be disturbed for two years after having been planted.
