Garlic flowers-no bulbils-no curl to scape-what garlic is it?
Comments (4)The sand leek (Allium scorodoprasum) is also sometimes called rocambole and usually but not always has bulbils along with the flowers. Elephant garlic is also sometimes called and even sold incurrectly as rocambole. The sand leek will have small bulbs with small cloves, and the elephant garlic will have large cloves on bigger bulbs or simply as big rounds and will have much heavier and robust foliage, while the sand leek is much daintier. If that is the foliage in the picture, I would guess that you got elephants that were originally identified as rocambole, or perhaps one of its wilder leek relatives such as the kurrat or Egyptian leek which is a bit smaller than the closely related elephants and there are several strains of each of those as well. Looks like one of the leeks to me. (they are all edible)...See MoreVirginia Wine and garlic festival

Comments (3)We go every year. Trying the garlic ice cream is obligatory ONCE. Decide for yourself if you like it enough to repeat the experience. The festival is my favorite source of different varieties of garlic for my garden and local honey. This year we're taking the grandchildren. I'm sure we'll be visiting different booths than in the past--like the one with face painting and balloon animals. Even though it does attract so many visitors, I've never felt crowded as it's spread out on so much land. I heartily recommend the festival as a fun day, usually on a beautiful fall afternoon....See MoreAnybody going to the hudson Garlic Festival?
