Notes
'Tall Blue Planet' garlic (Allium sativum 'Tall Blue Planet') is a vegetable for containers, low maintenance gardens, and food gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It is one of the more cold-hardy crops and can keep growing through light freezes with some winter protection. This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil of most types. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal. The plant is fragrant and attracts butterflies.
Pairs well with Habanero habanero pepper, Salad burnet, and Forever Purple coral bells.
