My friend would like me to get her some of the above to plant on her allotment.

She does not have a PC and i have just spent an hour trying in vain to find some.

Any suggestions please.

    I got mine from Fothergills last year and was pleased with the flavour, they have a good selection. Most of the autumn planting only ones are sold out but there still have some suitable for either spring or autumn planting:

    Thanks for the source.

    She uses Dobies and wants organic so I have ordered her a cataloque.

    In the end I bought 10 organic bulbs from Real Foods of Edinburgh that gave her 12 cloves per bulb where I would get just 6 from the local veg shop.
    They are sprouting already and she is beaming !!

    Also maybe consider in the future
    Maybe more expensive than what you bought but the bulbs are grown on the Island

    That was my first try but they were out of organic ones and the lady insisted on them being organic.

    Thank you for your post.
