Perennial - will not bloom in year 1. Blue/mauve flowers open in the summer (as opposed to spring for other chives). Its leaves have a mild onion flavour that can be treated as common chives are. Likes damp soil, in Siberia this plant grows in wet meadows. Can be difficult to germinate - start it early, or start by transplant in cool place.
