Description Heirloom Herb. Garlic Chive seeds are easy to grow! Leaves, stalks and immature flower buds are used in salads, as a garnish, or as flavouring in stir-fry dishes. The t aste is a succulent combination of the soft chive leaf and mild garlic flavour. Grows to 20 cm (8″) high with thinly strap-like leaves and white, open, ball-like flower clusters. Also known as Chinese Chives, Ku Chai. Garlic chives are a perennial hardy to Zone 4 and can become adventive in mild climates (Zones 7 & 8). How to Grow Sow seed directly outdoors in a sunny site with average soil in mid-to-late May or in August through September. Sow seed 6 mm (1/4″) deep and 2.5 cm (1″) apart then thin to 10 cm (4″) apart in the garden.
