Name that garlic !
« on: November 08, 2011, 11:29 »

These few garlic cloves  (the largest is a smidge bigger than a 50p piece)  were pulled from a patch of rough ground on our late holiday in Greece.  I was a bit concerened as I 'tidied them up' before coming home and when I read about not splitting the heads into single cloves until it is time to plant. ???

The good news is after just 5 days the majority are poking through.   ::)   Cheers,    Tony.
