Description
This variety has a great strength of flavour along with good skin cover. This is an exceptional pink cloved hardneck garlic that shows great vigour in UK climate. Perfect for Autumn and Spring planting, the fragrant cloves have a flavour that carries through well into cooking.Plant garlic in rows in any well drained soil in full sun. It is important that the soil does not become waterlogged so incorporate plenty of well-rotted manure or garden compost to improve drainage and feed the soil. On particularly heavy soils, grow garlic in raised beds. Carefully split the bulb into individual cloves. Plant each clove at a depth of 2cm (1") below the surface of the soil and 10cm (4") apart, leaving 45cm (18") between each row. Weed rows of garlic regularly and protect crops from birds by covering them with netting. Garlic is undemanding and will only require watering during particularly dry periods. Harvest garlic from July, when the leaves begin to turn yellow, by loosening them from the ground with a trowel. Gently wash and dry garlic bulbs, then place them in a warm dry position to dry out, prior to storing them. Bulbs can then be stored in good condition for up to 3 months.Product Specifications: Hardy bulbPosition: full sunHeight: up to 60cm (24in)Spread: up to 15cm (6in)Supplied as Garlic Carcassone Wight 2 bulbs Images shown are for guidance only of the expected results from plants upon maturity.
