Discover the plant
Chinese garlic chives are a popular perennial herb, appreciated for their flat, dark green, aromatic foliage with a delicate, mild garlic flavor. Widely used in Asian cuisine, they add a fragrant taste to stir-fries, dumplings, soups, omelets, noodles, rice, vegetables, sauces, and marinades. Milder than fresh garlic, they allow for a flavorful note without overpowering recipes, while also providing a beautiful texture in vegetable gardens, containers, and herb gardens.
Easy to grow, Chinese garlic chives prefer a sunny to lightly partially shaded location, in fertile, fresh, well-drained soil. They grow very well both in the ground and in pots, making them ideal for patios, balconies, urban vegetable gardens, and herb boxes near the kitchen. Regular harvesting of the foliage encourages the production of new tender shoots and helps keep the plant dense, productive, and easy to maintain.
At the end of the season, Chinese garlic chives produce pretty white umbel flowers, which are decorative, edible, and very popular with pollinators. Robust and durable, they return year after year once established and integrate perfectly into a gourmet, aromatic, and biodiverse garden. It is an excellent plant for gardeners looking for a perennial, flavorful, versatile herb that is particularly useful in Asian cuisine.
