Chives (Dolores) is a premium culinary herb variety known for its vigorous growth and dense clumping habit. It produces thick, lush green leaves that are ideal for regular harvesting, making it a reliable choice for continuous kitchen use.
The flavour is mild and onion-like, perfect for enhancing soups, salads, eggs, sauces, and garnishes. For Nigerian growers, this variety is especially valuable because it performs well in containers and supports consistent year-round harvesting with minimal care.
