I’m NC. Probably not quite as hot, but anyway, I keep several garlics in pots all year around. If I let them go to seed, they “escape” and then I dig up the seedlings. Thus far, this has worked for me. Just did down in the pot a bit and see if anything is the right size to harvest.
I’ve planted society garlic with my roses. They both do fine.
I am also NC, Piedmont—zone 7, south of I-40. Re: garlic—what size pot and do you think it w/b too late to start some or should I wait till fall? I have tried planting it in the ground w/o success. Also, do you need special bulbs to plant or can I start it from a clove of garlic that I have on hand.
Thanks for your help.
Thank you all for the garlic tips!
