Chives, parsley and other herbs

[LauraDoll]

Am I too late to plant chives, parsley and spring onions ?

[lardhelmet]

I'd leave it till the morning - it's nearly 10 o'clock

[NoMercy]

Gosh... I don't know the answer to that question, but the question itself took me back to when I used to drive into Xativa around march time and the smell of Cebollas de primavera (spring onions) used to fill my nostrils. Unlike the British versions, theirs were huge.

No --you are not. get cracking and water well --just do it.

just after ordering some spring onion-scallion-seeds earlier

Parsley might struggle, cheat and buy a herb pot from the supermarket and plant out all the little planlts in a row.... you will get loads and it solves the problem of erratic germination.... same with the chives... spring onions no probs,, try the red ones too they look lovely in a salad...

[smudge]

That made me chuckle too Lardy!

[LoftyLottie]

Supermarkets are great for herbs to plant out. Much cheaper than garden centres!

[smudge]

Yep, I agree Lottie. I bought some of ours from Morrisons & they're doing very well so far. Mind you, my husband puts 'tomato feed' on most of our plants & they all thrive on it!

[LoftyLottie]

Yes, nothing like tomato feed Smudge. I use it for everything too!!

How are you?
