ALLIUM SATIVUM

ALLIUM SATIVUM

FAMILY :: LILIACEAE
GARLIC, AJO: One of the most useful herbs available; helps cure colds, the flu, &c. Good blood purifier: believed to be an Immune System Stimulant. Keeps vampires away. I grow a lot of garlic but don’t sell it-buy some at your local mercado and plant the cloves; it’ll be much cheaper than and just as good as I could sell you. No garden should be without this plant. People who live on the edge appreciate the values of garlic.
