Hi All,
Every spring my beautiful garlic plants fall over, like
the wind has blown the over before they scape.
This happen to you?
no. perhaps it could be the variety of garlic, but
you could put a wind-break up for them, just far
enough away so that they are not shaded by it and see
what happens...

It is purple glazer, I think.
The high winds of winter did not phase them. Haven't had
much wind this spring. And they do this every year.
They will eventually recover when they decide to scape, then
die out afterwards.
I just did a google search ... it's a common topic .. eg

We don't grow garlic - lots of neighbours do - we scrounge ! :-)

Thank you!
