It is that time of year again when my chives are in bloom. I absolutely love this herb. It is so forgiving if you ignore it, it blooms profusely in the spring in a beautiful poof of purple! It is so pretty that I have to forgive its only fault...all the little seeds it sprinkles all over my garden. You really have to dead-head them once the blooms start to fade or you will have a SEA of CHIVES next year! It is a bit of work when you have as many clumps of chives as I do but being able to go out and cut fresh chives for a baked potato any time during growing season is so worth it........
