Growing Instructions
Plant the cloves 5cm deep, with the pointed end facing upwards.
Space the cloves 15cm apart to allow room for growth.
Water regularly during dry spells but cease watering 2-3 weeks before harvesting.
Maintain a weed-free environment around the plants to reduce competition for nutrients and water
As flower stalks appear, remove them promptly, this redirects energy back into the bulb development.
Harvest when the foliage starts turning yellow and drying, this is typically by late June or early July
Use a garden fork to gently lift the bulbs from the ground.
Place the bulb in full sun to dry out for 3-8 weeks.
After this, trim off any remaining roots and store bulbs in a cool, dry place where they can last up to 8 months.
