Сhive "Medium Leaf" - Allium schoenoprasum.
Greens - all year round!
A perennial plant known as chives and chives. Delicate leaves with a pleasant semi-sharp taste, quickly grow back in spring, forming a dense bush 20-35 cm high with an abundance of green mass. It blooms with beautiful pink-lilac flowers. Good honey plant. 
In terms of biological requirements, chives are in many ways similar to batun onions, but they have their own characteristics. Leaves are thinner, stronger and less damaged during transportation. When cut, the leaves do not disintegrate, so the presentation is better. Propagated both by seeds and by dividing the bush.
The seeding rate is 1-1.2 g per 1 m2. Sowing is best done in early spring, with summer sowing it is very difficult to get normal shoots. With prolonged cultivation (more than two to three years), 50-60 daughter plants are formed in the bush, the leaves become small, the yield decreases. After seed ripening (June), chives grow back and give good greens in the second half of summer and autumn.
Recommended for four years of use. Propagated by seeds and dividing the bush.
The leaves of chives begin to be cut in the second year of plant life. From May 10-15 and as they grow back - until mid-September.
Period from mass growth to technical ripeness of green onions: 70-85 days.
The leaves are small, delicate, fragrant, forming a dense bush.
The predominant color of the leaves: dark green, with a slight waxy bloom. The taste is semi-sharp. Plants form a large green mass. The basal bulb is poorly expressed. It is valued for its beautiful spherical inflorescences with pink and lilac flowers. Excellent honey plant.
Relatively resistant to peronosporosis. Productivity 1.7-2.0 kg / m2.
