Notes

'Green Mist' garlic (Allium sativum 'Green Mist') is a vegetable for containers, food gardens, and low maintenance beds. It is typically grown as an annual. Few crops handle cold as well, and with a little winter protection it grows on through light freezes. This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil of most types. Deer tend to pass it by. Butterflies visit it, and the plant has a fragrant scent.

Pairs well with Basil, Honeoye strawberry, and Salad burnet.
