I looked through my photos and, yes, there is some light red/purple striping on them but they are not as red as the Mexican Red Silver that they sent me:

Garlic (Allium sativum 'Mexican Red Silver')

They do, however, have more coloration than the Inchelium Red that they sent:

Are there growing conditions that could cause this? I know in the past, I have seen this type of deformation (if you will), too, but even then, it was only on a few bulbs in the entire bed. I just cannot remember what variety it was either.

If you feel that these were mis-labeled, please remove the photos as I certainly would not want to mislead anyone just because I was sent the wrong product.
