VIDEO: Elephant Garlic


We harvested our Elephant garlic today for the first time after planting it two years ago. We have no experience at all with Elephant garlic, so it was a pretty exciting dig! We found heads dividing into cloves, individual cloves, corms, and after more investigation, what we believe are corms with a year’s growth. Still not positive about everything we dug up and the possibility of viable seed collected from the seed heads. We would welcome any information anyone has from experience!

  1. I must have forgotten a garlic in a pot from last year!! It has popped up again this year!! It's a small pot…so doubt it will get any bigger!! But I am curious as to how big it might get!! Cheers!!

  2. Those round ones will make individual cloves when you plant them in the fall,the first year they are the corms,the second year they are what you have big round but hasn't made individual cloves yet.plant them in the fall and when you harvest them they will be full garlic cloves.hope that helps
