Garlic Variety Type Rating Price
Montana Zemo Garlic Hardneck, USDA Organic 5.0 (21 reviews) $8.95
Silver White Garlic Softneck, USDA Organic 4.5 (42 reviews) $6.95

Inchelium Red Garlic Softneck, USDA Organic 4.8 (66 reviews) $6.95
Cold Climate Garlic Bundle (Zones 1–5) Bundle — $23.50

The Cold Climate Garlic Bundle is the only garlic listing framed around a specific growing zone range (Zones 1–5), which matters if you're planting in a cold climate and want varieties selected for that condition.

How to Decide What to Buy

  • If you want pumpkins for carving or decorating: Jack O'Lantern, Howden, and Big Max are the classic carving types. Atlantic Giant is for size competition rather than carving.
  • If you want pumpkins for eating: Sugar Pie, Cinderella, and Jarrahdale are the culinary-oriented picks in this collection.
  • If you're planting garlic this season: Choose hardneck varieties (Montana Zemo, Chesnok Red, German White, Majestic, Romanian Red) for colder climates and stronger flavor; softneck varieties (Silver White, Sicilian Artichoke, Inchelium Red) generally store longer and suit milder winters. The Cold Climate Bundle is the shortcut if you're in Zones 1–5 and don't want to choose individually.
  • If you're buying a gift or want a curated set: The four Halloween bundles range from $19.79 to $22.49 after discount.

What to Verify Before Ordering

  • Discounts are labeled "10% Off Spooky Picks" — the discounted prices shown apply to the Halloween collection items listed above. Confirm the discount still applies at checkout, since seasonal promotions rotate.
  • Stock status is flagged as limited for Halloween items ("Get them before they sell out"), while garlic is marked "Now In Stock." If a pumpkin variety matters to you, order earlier in the season.
  • Ratings and review counts are shown per product — the Abominable Pumpkin Seeds listing, for example, shows a 1.0 rating from only 2 reviews, so low review counts are worth weighing rather than treating as a strong signal either way.
  • Garlic is sold by the bulb, not by seed count, and most varieties are USDA Certified Organic per the listings.
