Garlic Lover's Collection

A great selection of bulbs for the garlic lover!
SAVE £3.00 on this Collection comprising of 8 garlic bulbs (2 of each variety): Garlic Blanak (picture 1) - Officially categorised as a 'glazed purple stripe', Blanak boasts very attractive shiny purple skins on both cloves and bulbs, and is particularly fine-tasting when baked. The medium-to-large bulbs contain a greater number of cloves than German Red, and store very well too. Hardneck type - Very hardy type, ideal for northern areas. Widely regarded as the finest tasting of all garlics! 2 Bulbs (9-11 cloves per bulb); Garlic German Red (picture 2) - A vigorous grower with lush green foliage that leads to a bold, well formed bulb. All of the cloves are a good size, expect around 8-10 fat cloves per bulb which are easy to peel. German Red has a rich, hot spicy flavour which is well suited to dishes that demand plenty of garlic! It's a mid-season variety so the bulbs will be ready to pull from early July and will store up to the end of the year. Hardneck type - Very hardy type, ideal for northern areas. Widely regarded as the finest tasting of all garlics! 2 Bulbs (8-10 cloves per bulb); Garlic Purple Wight (picture 3) - A good garlic that is earlier than Solent Wight being ready to lift from mid-June. Has an attractive purple striped skin containing strong tasting cloves. Stores well until the end of the year. Semi-hardneck type. 2 Bulbs (5-8 cloves per bulb); Garlic Solent Wight (picture 4) - A popular selection that is well adapted to the British climate and gives a good crop of large bulbs with plump tasty cloves. Expect to start harvesting in July from a November planting. Softneck type. 2 Bulbs (12-14 cloves per bulb).
