Wilkos are usually quite good at seasons.  I'd treat them as an autumn planting variety.
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...

That's more helpful than "Allium", though!
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

I've just bought some from the garlic farm on the Isle of White and they say to plant now  :)
Staffies are softer than you think.

Is it that time already? Only seems a few weeks ago that I put the last lot of garlic in  :)

Best get down the shops  :)

I bought some from Wilkos last year & it turned out to be a hard neck variety if it helps.
It was also labelled allium sativum.
