My first crop ever was planted Fall '16 with garlic bought from The Garlic Store in Ft. Collins, CO. They have seven different Sampler Packs for various areas of the country so I got the one for Southern states/mild climate areas. You pick any four different bulbs from a list of nine different varieties for $14.95. After reading about each one elsewhere online, I chose Maiskij, Shilla, Spanish Benitee and Blanco Piacenza. The first two did great, the last two not well at all. I'm still growing the first two (hardneck turban types), having replanted each fall from the prior crop. They make nice fat bulbs.

The Garlic Store shipped fast, had great quality bulbs and being a garlic newbie, I really appreciated the growing instructions on their site.
