How to Grow and Care for Blue-flowered garlic

Blue-flowered garlic exhibits vibrant clear blue flowers arranged in compact 1-inch (2.5 cm) clusters. These clusters are perched atop slender, leafless stems that can reach heights of 20 to 24 inches (51 to 61 cm). The structure of the stems includes lower leaves that clasp closely, though they often wither away as the blooming cycle commences. Blue-flowered garlic propagates both through tiny bulblets and seeds, requiring a planting depth of around 6 inches (15 cm) for optimal spring flowering. During its growth period, blue-flowered garlic favors moist conditions, yet is capable of withstanding dry spells in the summer. It has a natural aversion among common garden foragers such as deer, rabbits, and voles.
