Elephant Garlic is becoming increasingly popular due to its mild distinctive flavour. The cloves are much larger than normal garlic.
The best planting time for garlic is mid-June to August. Good drainage is essential to prevent bulbs from rotting. Apply Morton Smith-Dawe Bone Flour or Blood and Bone before planting. Break the garlic bulb into individual cloves; it is important you do this the same day of planting as the clove will dehydrate and may not produce as well.
Garlic competes poorly with weeds; try to keep as weed free as possible. Water moderately.
Excellent for roasting with meat; roasting and eating as a side dish; diced and eaten raw.
Name:

Planting: Plant cloves 2-4cm deep and 10cm apart.
Harvest:
