from 9285 reviewsI've ordered from other companies, so I was expecting about the same size garlic. But these are huge! Very nice garlic, full and very large.
I've ordered from other companies. What surprised me was the size if the shallots. Other companies send me things that are very small.
This is a new grow for me and the bulb size is legit! I'm excited for this one!
Nice healthy bulbs, good size
I've bought this variety of garlic from Grow Organic for the past three years - the quality and yield is always excellent.
No complain about this garlic.
Few days after shoot out of the ground and looks exelente!
The tree arrived securely, and I immediately planted it in a 5 galon pot. It is thriving now, and I hope to plant it in the ground probably next year, or the year after the next. Four different olive varieties that I bought three years ago from this same site are already bearing much olives, from which I cured many jars and I am already enjoying them. This website is my first trusted venue to buy trees that I could not find in the nursery store.
Planted these radishes late in the season and they are wonderful
The nasturtiums that I planted last season from Grow Organic are still blooming in November! I love the variety of colors
I really appreciate this softneck garlic!!
Thanks for the great and fast order,
The chickens really like the trsti g ot so I know to cover the larger rows
I was pleasantly surprised how perfect my Shallots came. They were very plump and no blemishes or tears in the outer skin. Would definitely purchase from Grow Organic again and will recommend to friends and neighbors.
We love this garlic. We've planted this variety several years in a row and haven't been disappointed. It's a great producer and has a flavor we love. We've watered and have gotten some rain here in Eastern Kansas and it is up and looking beautiful. Looking forward to harvest!
I was surprised@how big the shallots are! I can't tell if I need to break them apart? I'm fixing to plant them. The garlic is all in the ground on time, the deer try to eat the tender little green tops poking thru the soil
Nice, large bulbs with nice cloves for planting. Excellent quality.
...always order it.
