Does anywhere sell garlic this year?!

Skipping the online shops of which there are loads, has anyone found garlic in the nurseries this year? Managed to get some onion sets and assumed that the garlic would be right there alongside but apparently not...

If anyone knows of a source near Guildford / Woking that would be great!

 

I tried it last year from supermarket ones but just got exceptionally small bulbs from them. Do you replant these? I guess that should work out ok as they won't have been sprayed with anything...?

 

Yes, but what about planting the resultant small bulbs that have grown from the sprayed supermarket original? They wouldn't have the spray but <may> have residual inhibitor?

Will try Robert Dyas - its the only place I haven't tried I think!

 

Somone mention my name? :wink:


I bought mine from the The Garlic Farm on the Isle of Wight last year when we went over on Holiday. It's not the cheapest but they were excellent quality and grew really well. I've an idea I've seen their products for sale in garden centres around here, I think it was either at Badshot Lea or Secretts (in Godalming). I need to buy some more for myself so I'll keep an eye out. I've bought some from Wilkinsons in the past but they never grew very well.
