I work in a grocery store, and every year around the same time (late June, I’ve been meaning to post this for a while) we get in a couple batches of garlic with bulbils. They’re formed on what look to be very short and awkward stalks held within the bulb, and they’re often huge for bulbils (the size of small cloves, as shown here). I will be planting garlic from these bulbs and seeing if I can document the rest of the cycle

Interesting! Didn’t know about this. I am planning on starting a gang of garlic this fall, so this has piqued my curiosity 🙂
