TG, I've looked at quite a few websites selling seed garlic - mostly to see what they say about one variety or another - and it looks to me like your price of $29 for 2 lb is a real bargain. Others are charging more.


The seller probably didn't call you back because this is the busy season. All the stock will be sold out really fast, so whatever you want you should go for it before you miss your chance. Or find a web seller near you that will sell smaller lots and get a couple of different varieties but you will pay more. Either way, don't delay because they will all sell out pretty soon.



Also you may have to hunt for bulbils now, most places ask to place an order for those in June before they cut their scapes.


In Canada and CAD I'm seeing $4 per bulb of seed garlic and also $4 per umbel of bulbils.
In US sites I see 8.50 USD for half or even quarter lb in some places. I suppose a quarter lb is about one bulb?
