I too had a few escapee garlics. I stuck 'em in with the asparagus' bed as I set that one up. They were scrawny, if those escapee's don't plump up, they can go whole next summer into mirapoix as is.
I tried something new this year, growing potato from seed. I got back a few berrys for next years planting and a whole buncha 'new potato' sized spuds. Most of those I'm putting back to field in a deepely mulched bed, where I *think* it may be possible for them to overwinter.
My hope for that spud plantation is for them to be able to get their grow-on as soon as the season opens, independent of my ability to plant them clonal-ly.
SE-OH in the land of hills and pawpaw, I've gotten a couple flats of hazelnut and paw paw started. They can slumber over the winter next to bonsai, all mulched in out in the main garden bed.
