This is a hybridized variety. They grow about 50% bigger than the
natural ones (The bulbs are much bigger too). When I was a child I knew
places, where wild ones grew. They had a baby bulb at each single corner
where a leaf starts off from the stem. - This hybrid grows also many
offsprings, but beneath the ground rather and very close to the mother
bulb.

Beautiful. It also reminded me that I need to make aioli this weekend.

Well spotted. Garlic is a member of the liliaceae family.
Bon appetite! May no vampires bite you
