Hi.

I'd say it needs to be kept somewhere cool and dry, not in the dark

 

As it's way too early for elephant garlic even to be harvested now, let alone be prepared for planting, I suspect the clove(s) may have come from another part of the World or has been kept in prolonged, controlled storage.

Perhaps you could ask the seller just how they they Elephant Garlic cloves so early?
