Overview

Vigorous, reliable and well-suited to UK growing conditions, this hardneck garlic produces attractive pink cloves with excellent flavour and aroma. It performs especially well in cooler, temperate climates and is known for its its strong, aromatic character and consistent bulb formation. Originally from southern France, this cultivated variety adapts well to British making it a top choice for growers seeking a dependable hardneck type. It forms 8-12 well-sized cloves per bulb, typically ready to harvest in June or July from autumn plantings..

Care guide

Plant the cloves (pointy side up) 2cm deep from October to March (if frost permits) at 15cm intervals. Subsequent rows should be spaced at 30cm intervals. Gently lift when the leaves start to yellow, and leave them on the surface of the soil (or in a bright shed) to ripen before storing them in a light, airy position, which is dry and frost free. There are not many varieties that show resistance to rust, but one way round this is to plant your garlic early, so that by May when rust is usually getting busy the garlic is well developed. Please note this is one head (bulb) that can be split up into several cloves before planting. You will usually get about 4 cloves from this variety of garlic when split up for planting.

Warning
