2022 was my first year growing these. I obtained my seed garlic from Portland Avenue Nursery.\r\n\r\nI grow multiple varieties of garlic and these are my favorite for 2022!\r\n\r\nThe bulbs were huge! They were the same size and sometimes larger than my elephant garlic. \r\n\r\nI love the taste, pure garlic, no heat.\r\n\r\nLow maintenance. I planted them and harvested them and did little in between.
