Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Allium schoenoprasum 'Cha Cha Chive' is not only edible but weird too. Typical of garden chives it has the usual long cylindrical foliage but instead of the usual pink flowers, the heads are filled with mini cylindrical green leaves which are also edible.
Thin, gray/blue green contorted needles and branches explain the name of this broadly conical white fir.
