My garlic is suffering a similar problem with rust, though not as heavy.

It doesn't seem to have spread, and only seems to be affecting the foliage,
the bulbs not being affected at all. I lifted a few of the larger ones,
just to check over the weekend and they seem fine.

Interesting John - how far had the bulbs of your garlic developed?

On the two that I have lifted, there weren't any "proper" cloves -
just lots of segments of stuff that looked like they will eventually
fatten out to become cloves.

I'd still expect to leave Garlic in the ground till later in July or
so, so I'm not sure if the relative immaturity of mine is a problem.
