Our "Chinese chives" seeds are selected with care and attention to ensure successful cultivation and high quality. This plant is known for its delicate flavour and versatile culinary use, adding freshness and aroma to every dish.

How to grow "Chinese chives" from seed

Successful growth requires well-drained soil enriched with nutrients. Loosen the soil and remove weeds to provide plants with enough space and resources. Sow seeds at suitable spacing, forming rows for unrestricted development and good air circulation. After sowing, cover them with a thin layer of soil and water carefully to provide a moist environment for germination.

During growth, it is important to maintain an optimal moisture level and avoid overwatering to prevent root rot. Feed plants regularly with organic or mineral fertilisers that provide the nutrients needed for healthy development.

Weed and pest control is essential for good plant growth. Check plants regularly to avoid competition from weeds and pest attacks. Take suitable protective measures when needed.

Once the plants reach maturity, harvest the stalks carefully to preserve their freshness and high quality.

Lemon zucchini is a unique variety with a colour and shape resembling lemons. From a distance, it can easily be mistaken for citrus fruit, but its taste is much milder, sweeter and refreshing. Young zucchini are excellent eaten raw; sliced thinly, they add freshness to salads.

The plant is easy to grow outdoors. It does not trail; the fruits grow directly from the centre of the plant. It is best to harvest them young, but for a decorative effect you can allow them to ripen fully and keep them as decoration.

This variety is a gardener's favourite because of its high yield, insect resistance and attractive appearance.

Sowing method:

• Planting: From April to May indoors or directly in the garden after mid-May.
• Plant spacing: Approximately 90x90 cm.

Recipe ideas:

• Abundant harvest? Chop the zucchini, onion and garlic, sauté and blend. Freeze the resulting mixture; it makes an ideal base for soups.
• Overgrown zucchini? Peel them and remove the seeds. Use a peeler to make thin strips, salt them and leave them to drain. Mix with chopped onion, mayonnaise and herbs such as pimpernel or chives for a wonderful salad serving 4-8 people.
