In colder regions (garlic is native to western Asia) a clove is planted in the fall and harvested 9 months later when about 60% of the leaves are dead. By then depending on the cultivator it may have produced 2/3 - 12+ more cloves.

Does garlic have seeds?

Yes but its not so easy to get them. The varieties we grow have been selected for bigger and better garlic bulbs which compete with the seed formation for nutrients. To get the garlic to form seeds you need to suppress garlic bulb formation. The seeds also compete against what are called bulbils. The garlic plants sends up a head of flowers and bulbils (depending on the type of garlic), the bulbils are tiny cloves that grow on the garlic scape (where the flowers grow). If the bulbils are allowed to grow they swell up and they kill off the flowers. The seeds would come from the flowers that get properly pollinated, but if the bulbils squeeze them out they just die and never open up enough to get pollinated. So yes, garlic can have seeds, but due to the way we've grow them, they no longer have seeds naturally (at least not the ones we grow for food).
