Notes
'Pink Perfection' chives (Allium schoenoprasum 'Pink Perfection') is a bulb for borders, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Deer tend to browse other plants first. The fragrant flowers keep a rich deep pink color and attract bees. D.W. Ross bred it.
