Garlic 'Early Purple' (2 Heads)
The large cloves of this garlic are easy to plant and reliably produce an excellent crop. Popular for cooking too because of the medium intensity of the cloves. Heat scale 5/10.
How to grow
Planting tips: Break the head into individual cloves and plant them pointy end up, about 7cm apart in a well-prepared bed. Cover with 2–7cm of soil (deeper in warmer climates, shallower in cooler climates) and mulch to prevent weeds competing with your bulbs. A slow-growing crop, allocate garden room for at least 6–9 months. Water when required or during periods of drought while actively growing. Harvest when tops die down. Dry and store.
