Growing Tips

Chives do well anywhere in the garden and are commonly used as a decorative plant that is also edible.

Chives will grow almost anywhere that receives at least 6 hours of full sun (even indoors with a sunny window).

Chives do best when the receive frequent watering and consistently moist soil. Chives are an onion plant that will produce bulbs when left to continuously grow. Every few years, separate the bulbs to continue expanding your chives.

Companion planting chives with plants such as carrots, mustard plants, tomatoes, or even cabbage will repel many pests that would otherwise affect these plants.

Culinary Uses

The entire plant can be used from root to flower, depending on your dish.

This herb goes great in mashed potatoes, or as an onion flavor in a meat loaf or gravy.

Harvesting Crops

Use shears when harvesting your chives. Clip the chive stalks about two inches above the soil starting from the outside in. Do not cut the entire plant, instead you should selectively harvest to keep your chives producing consistently.

Harvesting Seed

Chives are a perennial herb and will continue to grow year after year. We recommend allowing some of your chives plants to flower and turn brown at the end of their growing season.

Chive seeds form inside of the flower heads after the flowers have started to fade and dry out. Allow the flower heads to partially dry on the stalk and clip them a couple inches below the flower. Simply shaking these flower heads into a paper bag will release the seeds.

Do not let the flowers fully dry, otherwise the seeds will simply blow away.

Not new
Format: Hardcover
There was no indication the book was used and I had to spend $37 for it, which seems outrageous.

A mom's review: They read my mind
Format: Hardcover
I was putting together broad categories for how to instruct my family of boys on aspects of the civil war. Jonathan Fetter-Vorm and Ari Kelman read my mind. From captive blacks to reconstruction and the rise of the Klan terrorists, this book does it all. I don't need to instruct - this book paints vivid pictures for my kids to absorb, relate to, and build on according to their areas of interest. My other resources come into play, but this book is the Civil War overview I had been trying to create myself. Includes disease (malaria, gangrene) and Andersonville prison, suspension of habeus corpus and desertions, Mathew Brady's photographs, hunger on the homefront, desertions, the assassination of Lincoln, more. Marvellous. I can't say enough about the quality of the graphics and narration in the book. This is graphic history as it should be done. Bravo to the authors and publishers from not shying away from the cold truths. Lincoln's presidency was ambiguous on Constitutional questions. James K. Polk was a racist SOB, like most democrats. The KKK was/is the terror arm of the democrats. Great book for Junior High and up. I can't recommend it strongly enough. You probably need one for every child in your family, because they will not want to share. More books like this, please.

Historical Storytelling at its Finest
Format: Hardcover
This book is simply superb! This is storytelling at its finest. The illustrations pull you deeper into the personal history of historic events, and they manage to fool your senses into believing you might actually be there. My eyes lingered on them, and I found myself flipping back to previous panels to review them for subtleties I missed the first time. I teach middle school history, and I've been yearning for a book that would dare to cover the scope and breadth of the American Civil War. The authors have written a page turning graphic novel that will appeal to all ages, and will grip even those with a brief knowledge of U.S. history. This should be on the reading list of every American history class, and in the library of every school in the country. The history is first rate.
