Garlic
During my fathers visit this fall he brought me several garlic heads that he grew in his own garden in Texas. I have never grown garlic before so there is no better time than the present! Fall is the time to plant so I selected the largest bulbs and planted a dozen or so. As a general rule, seeds and bulbs are planted at a depth that equals their height. So for these, about 1.5 inches. These are large bulbs with a mild flavor. It will be fun to see how they do next fall. I plan to mulch them in with some leaves to protect them. Hopefully they are not too soft given that they came from Texas!
