Krys, this was the first time I grew chives in pots and I always pull the previous herbs out the next Spring when I'm planting the new herbs for the year. So I don't know if this is common or not, I'm just observing what happened this year. The chives are probably 5-6 inches long...enough for me to cut and use. I was pretty surprised by it.

You're gonna have to google that, I'm thinking they may end up bolting (going to seed) but I'm not sure. I'm not familiar with rutabagas at all let alone overwintering them, might as well google that too unless a member here in your climate area knows for sure.

I don't know what herbs you've planted before but some are perennials and will come back, maybe check before you pull them because the next year's growth will be stronger...and chives absolutely will come back better and stronger than the previous year. I've had mine for many years and in time they will start multiplying too.

Yeah, rosemary is hardy and you can even plant it in the ground. But trust me.....most of them just die during the winter and I just replace them the next year. I'm not certain the other herbs I use come back from the dead, though.

I've only had one year that it got so cold my oregano didn't come back.
