The former has a stem that goes right to the bottom, with cloves around it. T'other ends up in all cloves. Is it right that hardneck doesn't keep as well?

E&OE!

PS But some of miy 'softneck' this year went to seed (scape) & has a very solid stem.

Thanks Tim.  Think I'll go with the soft neck - I've not seen hard neck garlic before.
