New for fall 2026! We were excited to start growing Elephant Garlic a few years back, as it had been on the garden bucket list for decades. The first time I ate elephant garlic was roasted and spread onto homemade bread – and I was hooked!
Elephant Garlic is botanically a leek, which explains its sweet and smooth flavour, with just a hint of garlic zing. It’s been interesting getting to know this unique bulb – it sends up a flower bud, which should be removed just like scapes to direct the plant’s energy into the bulb formation. Perhaps the most interesting aspect to growing elephant garlic is that about 1/4 of the cloves planted will grow into what are called “rounds” – a single giant round clove (in the second picture). Don’t worry – save these to plant next year as pretty much all rounds form into nice heads the next year. Or you can certainly use them in the kitchen, too! Price per head.
