  • Cheeky chives

    Hi.
    Anyone else have chives that are flowering in October ?
    I also have some spring bulbs coming up. But that's a different story...
    I live in the North West of England, Manchester.

      VC my main bunch of chives which are planted under my apple tree did what they were supposed to do during the spring and summer months. These are clearly renegade... They have just started to flower.

          When they've flowered I chop them back and they grow and flower again. I can get three lots of flowers a year for normal chives. The garlic chives seem to flower a lot later.

              My garlic chives are growing well but no flowers.
              Perhaps it's because I dug them up and split them earlier this year.

              And when your back stops aching,
              And your hands begin to harden.
              You will find yourself a partner,
              In the glory of the garden.

                  I use a mix of six scoops of compost three scoops of sand/grit and two scoops of perlite,the quantity is unimportant as long as the ratio is the same, if for seeds I use this mix, if I am potting on I add some blood, fish and bone, along with a small quantity of chicken manure pellets
