Garlic Caulk Wight 2 x Bulbs Approx. 12 16 Cloves

Big Cloves and Beautiful Purple-Striped Bulbs Withstands temperatures down to -20°C Large, easy-peeling cloves Vigorous hardneck variety Tight, firm bulbs with purple-striped skins Early harvest around the end of June ‘Caulk Wight’ was selected from purple-stripe garlic originating in Russia and Eastern Europe, and that cold-climate heritage shows in the garden. Capable of withstanding temperatures down to -20°C, it grows particularly well in UK conditions from north to south and is an excellent choice if you garden in a colder part of the country. It's vigorous above ground too, producing distinctive broad, dark green foliage. Beneath the soil, the bulbs develop large, easy-peeling cloves enclosed by tight wrappers – a particularly useful characteristic in our damp climate, where some hardneck bulbs can split and open as they mature. Plant in autumn and you can be lifting firm bulbs around the end of June. Dry them thoroughly after harvest and the outer layers peel away to reveal the beautiful marbled purple-striped bulbs underneath.
