Hi Chezs

Yes, I bought them online, I think from Marshalls Seeds. Apparently, they are a bit milder than normal garlic. Hopefully, I shall find out a bit later in the year

I tried supermarket garlic for the first time last year. I also experimented by also buying some from the local market and I must say, that although I did get some results from the s/m ones, I got a by far better result from the ones off the market. They were also larger than the s/m ones. The s/m ones came from China, whilst the market ones came from Holland. Neither flowered, but we had such a lousy summer, I think that affected them.

The ones this year were produced in this country and look a lot better than the s/m ones. We will see in a few months time! LOL
