How is this shocking news? Poop garlic has been common knowledge for years. Look at the roots. If there aren't any it's Chinese. Garlic is so easy to grow. I live in a suburb on Long Island and my backyard is mostly raised beds. One 8x4 is completely garlic.
I've heard the same about the roots.
If the garlic has roots, it is grown in the US.
No roots means it's imported because there are already regulations about no allowing rooted plants to be imported.
I think it's more that the bleach got them off - but not sure
If deer are eating your flowers, plant garlic all around them. Works to keep them away when nothing else does.
Hmm - so plant more flowers then...
I love daylilies and the many deer around here were awful about decimating them. I planted one bed that was just covered in buds ready to bloom and overnight the deer ate them down to bare ground. I tried everything and nothing kept them from the daylilies, including grinding up garlic and making a spray. I went to Costco and got one of the large bags of garlic, divided the cloves and planted them all around and next to each daylily. The deer left them alone. I guess the only other thing would have been an electric fence. They stare at the chickens' electric fence but don't go near it.
Sorry. I am not someone who knows anything about growing.
