I planted several garlic chive plants last year around my garden. They grew very well and tasted fantastic. I just picked some today....they were VERY strong and extremely BITTER!! What might have happened to cause this??

Did you accidently pick flower stalks instead of leaves? The flower stalks are bitter. You can tell stems from leaves because stems are round and the leaves are flat.

Garlic chives. One of my top 3 most hated plants. If you let them go to seed they will come up everywhere. Literally everywhere. After planting them about 8 years ago I still haven't killed every single one. But I'm close. YMMV.
