I think Bob had planned to plant a lot. Yep, that's a lot...so's 500! I put in about 150 cloves. Allicins grows in north Idaho so their varieties are certainly winter hardy. Now I am fighting gophers. Dirty little boogers. They love garlic and roots of freshly planted trees...I just put in a few apple trees. When you drive across the plains and notice there's no trees, you can blame gophers and rabbits. (Well, at least in part...) Gophers eat the roots, rabbits girdle the bark in the winter when there's a lot of snow on the ground. I've lost easily 20 trees to both those types of varmints. lh
