Garlic chive 'Chinese leek flower'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Chinese leek flower is thought of as hardy, so it can be safe to leave outdoors for the majority of winter (although if in doubt, using a row cover is often a good idea). Ideally plant in loamy soil and try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 5.8 and 7.0 as Chinese leek flower likes to be in weakly acidic soil to neutral soil.

Aim to sow 0.58 inches (1.5 cm) deep and try to ensure a gap of at least 3.9 inches (10.0 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 18°C / 64°F to ensure good germination.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Chinese leek flower is a hardy plant.

This variety tends to be ready for harvesting by mid spring.
