Hi all,

I am trying small farming with Giant Garlic in South Africa.

The giant garlic is about 10 times bigger than the normal type. I planted
some cloves during the last season and got 1000's of little fingernail size
solid bulblets with a few big solid bulbs as well as propper segmented
bulbs - but not as big as it should be.

Can somebody out there:
- Give me information regarding the planting requirements, and
- Supply me with the botanical name of this garlic
