This geoart is in honor of my mother, formerly known as the flower lady of Portville. The cache names are just some of the varieties she has in her gardens.  Read the description below to find the information needed to get the final coordinates of the cache.

Chives (Allium schoenoprasum) are a perennial member of the onion family that sport beautiful edible flowers. Chives are cool-season, cold-tolerant perennials that are best planted in early spring for a late spring and early summer harvest.Be mindful when planting this herb, as it will take over your garden if the flowers are allowed to develop fully (the flowers scatter the seeds). However, this plant is easy to dig up and move if it does end up invading other parts of your garden
