nice garlic patch. The plants get big purplish pods or flowers. My Bob used to grow garlic, among every other thing almost. He even grew cotton once, and tobacco (neither crop amounted to much.) Collected seeds from some broom corn growing by one of those pioneer repro village places…that grew and in fact was spectacularly pretty AND made wonderful brooms…I still have a couple of wiskbrooms he made.

OK, your Bob has creds way beyond us here! Whatta guy! We could have used some of those brooms in our big move. Whew!
