Are you growing your own? At least for the greens? They go with everything.

Garlic is self sterile in most cases like Saffron, you grow Garlic from garlic (like most Alliums, many Alliums are not sterile, but still grown from clones). In almost any climate you can grow it. These peeps are trying to revive the wild form. https://hoodrivergarlic.com/

If you have a windowsill and a pot, really just a bit of dirt, delicious garlic can be yours at home.

If you grow just for greens take your smallest cloves, not worth peeling, and stick them in the dirt. If you are growing for bulbs use the most flavorful and disease resistant.

Like Saffron, plant it randomly for future generations , and let it spread, it is not invasive.

Edit: tomorrow is Fajitas night, so some of these will die for the cause. Please pour one out for my dead homies.

    Garlic will repel aphids on some plants, but other aphids will feast on garlic, it depends on the climate. A spray of water with a little soap and a pinch of salt is lethal to most aphids. The soap helps make it stick.

    Garlic spray is my goto for dealing with pests from bugs to cats. Most things hate it, it smells like hell.

    Put a few cloves in a spray bottle, leave it in the sun for a few days, add a pinch of salt and a little soap.
