Winter Onions & Garlic

A quickie to note that today Smiler and I planted winter onions sets – Electric (red) and Senshyu Yellow (yellow, suprisingly). We also planted Marco garlic, something I tend to forget to do at this time of year as sometimes I’ve had success with spring planting. After this year, when one variety decided to stay dormant all summer and I discovered the bulbs still alive this autumn, I’ve figured it’s best getting them in early. Whilst we should probably have had them in by now, it’s been so mild recently (16 Celsius today) that we seem to have a window to get some late sowing done. Here’s hoping the cold weather kicks in soon!
