The Music garlic I planted last November has come up nicely. It was all we could do to hold back a few cloves of this delicious garlic to plant. We'll face the same dilemma this year.

The Story of Music (from the Seed Saver Catalog)
This Italian garlic variety was brought to Canada by Al Music in the 1980s from his homeland of Italy.
This sweet and pungent garlic consistently produces great crops.
Garlic has a history of over 7,000 years of use in human culture and is native to central Asia. As well as being used for food, it has also been useful as a medicine, even as recently as World War I and World War II.
Some European cultures have been known to associate garlic with "white magic" or spiritual protection, giving rise to the belief that it will ward off vampires.
