Elephant Seed Garlic

We have been working on getting Elephant Garlic certified in the Idaho quarantine zone for several years and are finally able to provide some to our customers to purchase for planting. Technically a leek, and not a garlic, Elephant garlic has mild garlic flavored very large cloves. Elephant garlic does produce an edible, straight stalked scape. It is often a biannual and may produce large rounds the first year, and full bulbs the second year.

In Southern Idaho, seed garlic is planted in October and harvested in July. We begin taking pre-orders on June 1st and begin shipping September 1st. If you don’t want to get your garlic the first part of September we’re happy to keep your garlic in our temperature and humidity controlled cooler until closer to your planting date, just specify a shipping date in your order notes!
