FAQ Discover the frequently asked question
Receive garlic bulbs or bulblets ready to plant?
You can choose to receive your certified seed garlic in bulb or clove form. EARL du Pont Vert is able to offer you a garlic de-bushing service. You'll receive garlic cloves ready for planting.
However, garlic bulblets can only be stored for a very short time between destoning and planting (around one week). This means that when you receive certified garlic seed, you must be able to sow it immediately, i.e. the soil must be prepared and the weather conditions suitable for planting. Please contact us to discuss the possibility of this service.
