Garlic can be planted all year round, provided the cloves are in good condition. Most varieties are available in autumn and winter. We stock varieties that are successfully grown in the Netherlands. As soon as you receive it, break open the bulb and plant the cloves in the ground: 2–5 cm deep and 10–20 cm apart. Garlic planted in autumn will sprout by February (or earlier) and can be harvested in June or July. Planting later will, of course, mean a later harvest. Harvesting is not essential, as garlic is hardy and can simply remain in the ground. After harvesting, braid the foliage as you sometimes see garlic displayed in shops and dry the bulbs in the sun. Indoors, they can sometimes be stored for up to a year! Garlic is said to repel aphids in plants such as roses, so it is well worth trying!
