Hi, I have the option to order some vigour garlic but not heard of it & googles not forthcoming. Anyone grow it here that can tell me something about it please?

Many thanks

It seems you may have the name wrong as google cant find info on it.

I think its just a typo Gavin    There is a Vigour garlic so have changed the post title so people can find it on later searches 

[gavinjconway]

Yeah I found the ones on eBay... obviously not a common one or maybe a new one??

[New shoot]

Not sure Gavin, but as a fellow onion and garlic fan, I'm keen to see if anyone has any reviews for the OP   

[gavinjconway]

it doesn't take much to tempt me to try new types. I have 5 types (100 plants) for this year already... but .... Mmmmm.... dunno.... may just be tempted..

Hi thanks for replying, the name was given to me as vigor & I didn't think to wonder if they had it wrong!
Still can't find too much so still interested if anyone's tried it

I think the spelling is actually Vigor.  It is a soft necked garlic, originating from France, hence the spelling.   Its full name is I think Vigor Supreme.  It is for autumn planting, harvesting in June / July. 

You can find it on French websites, such as this one: http://www.eurobulbe.fr/en/seeds.php

Never tried it though, or buying seed from France.   I think i have seen it for sale in the UK too though in the past.

Thank you for the link AnneB...

Reading an old eBay listing, it can be planted early spring. I'll give it a go & see how it turns out!

It's not another  color / colour spelling puzzle again?

Cheers,   Tony.
