Wild and Unclassified Garlics

There are many new exciting heirloom garlic varieties being discovered by the world at large, and some of them have not been proven to conclusively belong to one family or another. Some of these, you will find on other sites designated as a "Purple Stripe," which seems to be the catchall category when people don't know what else to make of a garlic, but this is just a conjecture til the genetic studies are done. Some are very hardy and productive and offer a lot of promise for gardens and farms to come!
