Thanks you lot. I guess I'd better dig the whole lot up this year and rotate! Could do with a change anyway.  ::)

Woolworths had elephant garlic in stock yesterday in Caernarfon
Purchased mine from Woolies in Taunton.  However - I am now confused - the planting instructions state "Plant the bulbs..."  Shouldn't that read "Plant cloves..."???

I planted supermarket garlic last year, it was OK but the bulbs were tiny, takes forever to peel enough to use, bought 4 lots from Tuckers this year, fingers crossed

we have tried growing some garlic in a very large pot, its looking good at the moment. Its a lovely pink garlic that we got in a french garden centre last year. we also bought some interesting looking bean seeds, lots of lovely colours!!!
