Someone recently here asked what was the best garlic to grow. I think
the concensus was 'whatever you can get your hands on'.

On a radio gardening program it was said that the garlic best suited to
Australian conditions is the one with the purple blush on the corm. This
seemed to be painting with a pretty broad brush to me, with Australia
having such a range of conditions between the extremes.

hey john,

if you can get local grown garlic grow it me i grow whatever i can
get.

so long as you don't use that chinese junk huh?

i got hard necks and soft necks the hard necks give you flower corms
(need 2 seasons in the ground) good value the soft necks ya gotta save
some from the cooking to plant next season.
