| Siberian does quite well in my zone 4 garden, and suffers mainly by comparison with other varieties (I grow about 30 varieties) in bulb size (avg 1.7"), number of cloves (6-7), and flavor. Siberian does a good job in combining the three, and will be guaranteed a spot in my garden for years to come. |

| A beautiful garlic, lots of purple. Siberian was a little small for me even though other varieities in adjacent rows were jumbo. I'd grow it again for the color and great taste. The color attracts a lot of attention at markets. |
