I got an email today from Burpee that said it is time to order garlic for fall planting. Depending on your zone, they will ship it when it needs to be planted. They also report that it sells out very quickly, so if anyone is interested, now is the time to order.
Me too.
I was going to pass. Last Fall's planting thrived and survived the Winter but most of it disappearted at mid-Spring. No idea why. Harvested a whopping six cloves.
But, I'll try one more time. Ordered:
Early Italian: "This hefty garlic infuses entreés, soups and salads with sweet, mild flavor. These easy-growing, widely adapted garlics will keep 10 months. Produces larger cloves than most softnecks, making it easier to handle. Better adapted to summer heat, too. Garlic may begin growth late in fall or early in spring. Sun. Product Details Sun: Full Sun Spread: 4 inches Height: 18-24 inches Days to Maturity: 90-150 days Sowing Method: Direct Sow"
Sonoran "is very early harvesting so you have garlic before anyone else and it grows well in the great American Southwest from Austin/San Antonio all the way to San Diego. Harvests VERY early - late spring to early Summer - stores until around November-December.
