The Common Chives, 'Allium schoenoprasum', has beautiful edible flowers and delicate onion flavored foliage. The Common Chives are at home anywhere. Not many plants do as many things as this plant does and are as easy to grow, maintain, and they come back every year. The Chives plant is 12 inches tall and has narrow, hollow leaves. They produce round pinkish-purple flowers in late spring and early summer. Cives are a type of onion grown for the foliage and not the bulb. The edible flowers make a tasty chive vinegar. Chives foliage is used as garnish to compliment onions, potatoes, aspargas, cauliflower, corn, tomatoes, peas, carrots, spinach, poultry, fish, shell fish, creamy sauces, cheese and eggs. It is very famous for use on baked potatoes with butter and sour cream and chopped chives on top. Plant in the early spring as soon as the soil can be worked or 2 months before first fall frost. Chives prefer rich, well drained soil. - Category: Home Family - Garden - Annuals - Item: 453527207 - Herb - Common Chives

Herb - English Lavender Munstead

Herb - English Lavender Munstead


The English Lavender Munstead, 'Lavandula angustifolia 'Munstead', is one of the Lavandula angustifolias or English lavenders. Munstead is a fragrant robust lavender that makes a great hedge. English Lavender Munstead flowers profusely in the spring, after which a good pruning will provide an attractive gray bush with highly aromatic leaves. This compact variety of English lavender has lavender blue flowers. Lavender flowers have a rich sweet flavor and are especially good when used with sweets. Add a tablespoon of finely chopped lavender flowers to any sugar or butter cookie recipe or add two tablespoons to any pound cake or white cake. This makes an elegant addition to tea time. Munsteads are also good for butters and cream cheese recipes. Pick the edible flowers when just opened and not when they start to turn brown. Waiting even a day or two to pick, can affect the flavor. It is best to eat only the flower petals. Pull the flowers away from the little brown or green cap that they are attached to. Lavender flowers can be fresh-frozen or dried. - Category: Home Family - Garden - Annuals Item: 453527208 - Herb - English Lavender Munstead
