Garlic, garlic, garlic! No vampires around here! The purple skinned ones are "Siberian" and they LIKED our 0*F winter. The white ones are "Apple Gate", I believe, and while we got an OK harvest from them, not as many of them bulbed up good. Others might have done well except there was a large dog found in the garlic bed in late spring - bending stems over and curtailing further growth. The garlic in the photos are about 2" in diameter - the ones pulled early due to doggie damage were barely 1" in diameter - but they fit nicely into a fancy bottle I have, so now are making garlic olive oil in my fridge - looks very nice.

Everyones' flowers are so lovely. I only have one brave yellow marigold bloom - and something chomped at it - but it is a lovely bright yellow among the green.
