 Serene would probably be the best word to describe the inner beauty of white.

  1. Is that a garlic chive as our chive flowers are purple?

  2. So pretty, and I have those blooming in my garden also. Do you use the seeds in cooking? Someone mentioned that to me one day.

  5. Beautiful. If I could only have one colour of bloom, it would be the cool, calm white. Lovely pictures.

  11. Green Lane Allotments ~ yes, garlic chive.

    Muddy Boot Dreams ~ Kakdah fried leaves and buds only. But not the seeds and matured flowers. Don't know why.

    Marilyn Jones ~ stir fried, soup. With bean sprouts, the plate can very colourful.

    Wendy ~ white is not much of a colour, but it has a calming effect. I think..

    Milka ~ white is nice, just like milk.

    Rebecca ~ White represents whatever is pure..

    Kitchen Flavours ~ Chives will flower when age is catching up.

    One ~ Kangkung has beautiful flowers too. Sometime Kakdah adds kangkung to chives and taugeh in her fried menu.

    KMG ~ Chive will flower whenever it feels the urgency. We can in fact induce plants to flower.

    Keats ~ Misai kucing is beautiful to the point of being exotic.

    Poetic ~ rain lily is funny. No matter how much I tried to simulate rains and drizzle with watering, they still react to real rains to bloom.

    cheers everyone.

  12. My family hardly eat chives. But recently I bought chive flowers and stir-fried them. They tasted sweet and yummy.
