Chives

Food and Purple flowers

And they never need dividing, or seem to get bugs, and they grow even for me...what's not to like? I think these are wonderful flowers.

Yet some people persist in thinking of them as weeds! (Note primrose leaves in lower left corner---also thought of as weeds. Here their daggish leaves provide delightful contrast to the simple linear quality of the chives.)

This was probably photographed in 1999.
