50% of cloves were infected/desiccated
About half of the cloves appeared to be infected with Fusarium or were already desiccated so badly that the cause could not be determined.

So far this garlic is growing and looks very healthy. Very satisfied as this is the first time I have had such great success with garlic.

Purple Russian garlic
Easily planted and is growing. The bulbs were magnificent so made for a number of next year's potential garlic bulbs. Looking forward to a bountiful harvest next summer.
