If you are an indoor gardening enthusiast (or think you want to start growing vegetables indoors), growing and using the chives plant is an attractive option. The chives plant is not only a pleasant flavor enhancer, but also makes a stunning addition to your indoor decor. The beautiful green stems growing in a clump sprouting beautiful purple flowers are especially a compliment in the kitchen. Both the stems and the flower are edible!
Growing any type of herb is a simple way to make the plunge into indoor container vegetable gardening without a huge investment of time or money. Fresh herbs taste distinctly different from their dried versions, but the cost of fresh in local markets is fairly pricey. By growing your own you can enjoy them all year round and ignite some creativity into your recipes. I found chives quite by accident. It has been a happy accident, since there is a mecca of usefulness in this little emerald gem. You will not believe all I discovered in the dirt as a novice gardener in growing chives in your garden and using a chives plant.
