Yes, they are edible. They have a milder flavour than most garlic. If you have plenty you can eat the stems like leeks too. Don't pull them, just cut at ground level and they will regrow.

Hi Pam. I live in a temperate zone on the mid north coast and plant garlic around Anzac Day and harvest around armistice day as a general rule of thumb.

Read through the information and comments on the Garlic page - Click on the Vegetables and Herbs tab and then Garlic. Set the zone to Temperate Australia at the top of the page.

This site is a self help site. It is for people to look up when how and why to plant vegetables in the their part of the world and their climate zone. Go to the home page and work it out. Go to vegetables - select the crop - select climate zone and read. It is all there.

Hi, I have 4 Pearl Garlic Plants that all have a head of seeds on them. The seeds are still white. do I wait for them to go black before I collect the seeds. And when I do - how do I go grow from seeds. when do I plant the seeds in the ground? I also have a bag of pearl garlic dried cloves from the Barossa (I am in Melb) - when can I plant the dried cloves. Would it still be in March/April? Any help would be appreciated :-)

I would suggest you research on the internet - how to grow garlic from seed. A lot easier and quicker from the bulbs I think.
