Notes

'White Dill' garlic (Allium sativum 'White Dill') is a vegetable for containers and food gardens, and it needs little upkeep. 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. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. Its fragrant growth attracts butterflies.

Pairs well with Basil, Honeoye strawberry, and Lemon cucumber.
