Autumn Planting Pack x 4 Bulbs

Seed Garlic for Autumn planting. This variety planting pack is a selection of 4 garlic types that, in our experience, grow best from Autumn planting - mid September through to mid December.

This pack contains:

1. Red Duke x 1 bulb: Allium Sativum ophioscorodon (Hardneck) - The last stronghold of rare exotic hardnecks with fierce and spicy flavours is in Eastern Europe. Hotter and stronger than any of the commonly planted garlic in the UK.

2. Solent Wight x 1 bulb: Allium Sativum (Softneck) - Versatile Autumn or Spring planting with harvest in mid to late July.

3. Elephant Garlic x 3 cloves: Allium ampeloprasum: A fun member of the allium family, Elephant garlic can grow, with adequate water, to 150mm across and weigh over a kilo.

4. Iberian Wight x 1 bulb: Allium Sativum (Softneck) - Large fat white garlic with purple stripes, origin in south west Spain. Purple when grown close to surface.

Growers Tips

The basics: Plant your garlic in an area which will receive maximum sunlight hours. Place the cloves 3 – 4cm below the surface, root down (pointy end up) 6 inches apart. Water your garlic during dry periods, stopping watering completely during the last few weeks. Harvest when the lower leaves start to yellow and fold. Mid May – mid August depending on variety and location. Click here for our detailed garlic growing instructions and our month by month garlic grower’s guide.
